"Gezicht op de Dande" is a black and white photograph by José Augusto da Cunha Moraes, taken before 1886. The photograph captures a serene landscape with a river winding through a lush, tropical setting, a tall palm tree towering over the water's edge. Moraes, a Brazilian photographer known for his landscape work, uses a calm composition to evoke the tranquil beauty of the Dande river. The photo, part of a collection documenting the Brazilian landscape, offers a glimpse into the country's natural wonders, a visual journey of a time before 1886.
