Scheidend resident F.J. Junius zittend op de zo juist onthulde 'Junius-bank' in Tandjongkarang Possibly 1933 - 1935

This black and white photograph, likely taken between 1933 and 1935, captures a moment in the life of F.J. Junius, a Dutch resident in the colonial town of Tandjongkarang. Junius is seen seated on a newly unveiled bench, named after him, in front of a stone inscription. The photograph, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a snapshot of colonial life in the Dutch East Indies, showcasing the legacy of Dutch influence and the role of individuals like Junius in shaping the local landscape. The small size of the photograph adds to its intimacy and suggests it may have been a personal memento.
