Aanplant en ravijnen op Kanopan Oeloe, 1931 1931

"Aanplant en ravijnen op Kanopan Oeloe, 1931" is a photographic work documenting the process of clearing land and planting in the Kanopan Oeloe region. The anonymous artist, likely a colonial administrator or surveyor, captures four distinct scenes in this 1931 work, including the clearing of dense vegetation and the creation of irrigation ditches, illustrating the labor-intensive process of converting the land for agriculture. This collection of images offers a glimpse into the colonial era of Indonesia, where such activities transformed landscapes and influenced local economies.
