This studio portrait, taken by Dutch photographer Kassian Céphas between 1870 and 1912, captures a young Javanese couple in traditional attire. The man wears a tall hat and the woman a headdress adorned with flowers. They both sport ornate jewelry and sit on a rug, creating a formal and composed scene. This photograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the influence of colonial photography in documenting Javanese dress and customs during the Dutch East Indies period.
