"Weg naar Blinjoe" (Road to Blinjoe) is a stereoscopic photograph created by Dutch photographer Robert Julius Boers between 1900 and 1922. This vintage image captures a scene in Indonesia, likely Java, showcasing a road lined with palm trees leading to a building. The stereoscopic effect, achieved by viewing the two images together, adds depth and a sense of realism to the scene. The photograph is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, offering a glimpse into the colonial era and its impact on Indonesian landscapes. This photo is a prime example of the genre of travel photography, documenting a moment in time and place through the lens of a traveler.
