Ontginning en aanplant op Leidong West 1930s

This photographic series, "Ontginning en aanplant op Leidong West," taken in the 1930s by an unknown photographer, documents the process of clearing land and planting rubber trees in the Leidong West region. The four photographs show different stages of the process, starting with the cleared land and ending with a mature rubber plantation. This series provides a glimpse into the agricultural practices and economic development of the region during this period. The series is significant for documenting the history of rubber cultivation in the area, as well as for showcasing the work of an unknown photographer who captured these important moments in time. The use of black and white photography also highlights the stark contrast between the cultivated and natural landscapes.
