This black and white photograph by Geldolph Adriaan Kessler titled "Loongwa temple" captures a traditional Chinese temple with a multi-tiered roof. The temple is surrounded by trees and a low wall. The image, taken before 1908, provides a glimpse into the architecture and landscape of China during the late Qing dynasty. The photograph, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a valuable document of the architectural styles and cultural traditions of this era.
