"Kaibar gastvrij ontvangen door Borgar" (Kaibar Welcomed by Borgar) is an etching by Karel Frederik Bombled, created between 1852 and 1902. This scene, likely inspired by the Dutch colonial past in Indonesia, depicts a group of people dressed in traditional clothing, possibly representing the indigenous population, being welcomed by a man dressed in a similar style, potentially a leader or figure of authority. The etching's detail and composition offer a glimpse into Bombled's artistic style, which focused on historical and cultural themes. This artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a window into the Dutch artistic engagement with colonial themes.
