Batik printing became a national art in Indonesia through its deep cultural significance and historical roots, tracing back to the Majapahit Kingdom in the 13th century. In the 20th century, batik gained recognition as a symbol of Indonesian identity during the struggle for independence, leading to its promotion as a national heritage. The art form was officially recognized by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in 2009, further solidifying its status as a vital aspect of Indonesian culture. Today, batik is celebrated not only for its artistic value but also as a representation of Indonesia's diverse traditions and regional identities.
