This anonymous photograph, titled *Leidinggevenden van plantage(s) en honden in de velden van tabaksplantage Boeloe Tjina op Sumatra,* depicts two European men and their dogs on a rustic bridge in the lush Sumatran jungle. The image, dating from roughly 1900-1920, offers a glimpse into the colonial period in Indonesia, showcasing the daily life of plantation managers during the Dutch East India Company’s presence on the island. The photograph's stark black and white aesthetic reinforces the sense of the tropical setting, and the detail of the bridge and the surrounding vegetation adds to its documentary value.
