Opzichter in veld bij oogst c. 1900s - 1910s

This anonymous black and white photograph titled "Opzichter in veld bij oogst" shows a group of people standing in a field of cut sugarcane. It was likely taken between 1900 and 1910 in the Dutch East Indies. The photograph, now in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a common scene of colonial agriculture, highlighting the labor involved in sugar production. The scene, with its focus on workers and the harvested crop, offers insight into Dutch colonial practices in the early 20th century.
