Borobudur 1947 - 1948

This is a photo album page from the 1940s. It features three black and white photographs that were likely taken by an amateur photographer traveling in Southeast Asia. The first photo is of the Borobudur temple in Indonesia, captioned "Tempel," the second is of a boat, likely on a lake or river, captioned "G.Pleite" and the third is of several men posed on a boat, captioned "H.H.M. van Lies." These photographs offer a glimpse into the personal travel experiences of a Dutch person during the immediate postwar period. The album page, with its simple layout and handwritten captions, provides an intimate glimpse into the past and offers a valuable document for researchers studying postwar travel and Dutch history.
