Gipsmodel van het verdwenen Atjeh-monument te Batavia before 1882

This plaster model by Bart van Hove, dating from before 1882, depicts a winged figure holding a laurel wreath and a staff. It served as a preparatory model for the "Atjeh-monument" in Batavia (now Jakarta), Indonesia. The monument commemorated the Dutch victory in the Aceh War, a conflict that lasted from 1873 to 1904. The model is now in the Rijksmuseum collection, offering a glimpse into the historical context of Dutch colonialism in Southeast Asia.
