Gezicht op de Esplanade te Singapore 1867 - 1880

"Gezicht op de Esplanade te Singapore," a black and white photograph by G.R. Lambert & Co., captures a panoramic view of the Esplanade in Singapore between 1867 and 1880. The photograph depicts a large, classical building in the background, likely a government building, surrounded by a sprawling grassy field. A tent stands in the foreground, hinting at an event or gathering in the open space. This photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the colonial architecture and landscape of Singapore during the 19th century.
