"Stoepa's op de bovenste galerijen van de nog ongerestaureerde Borobudur" is a black and white photograph by Dutch photographer Kassian Céphas, taken between 1872 and 1890. The photograph shows a close-up of the upper terraces of the Borobudur temple in Indonesia, before its restoration. The intricate stonework and the numerous small stupas on the terraces are captured in detail, providing a glimpse into the grandeur and complexity of the ancient Buddhist monument. This photograph, housed in the Rijksmuseum, serves as a valuable historical document, showcasing the state of the Borobudur temple before its restoration and highlighting Céphas's significant contributions to the photographic documentation of Southeast Asian architecture.
