Boeddhistische monniken c. 1895 - 1915

"Boeddhistische monniken" (Buddhist monks) is a photograph by P. Klier taken sometime between 1895 and 1915. The photo captures a group of Buddhist monks standing in front of a large, ornate structure, likely a temple or pagoda. The monks, all dressed in saffron robes, are holding bowls, suggesting they are on their daily alms round. The photograph, likely taken in Southeast Asia, offers a glimpse into the daily life and religious practices of Buddhist monks during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The photo's realistic depiction and composition make it a valuable document of social and religious history.
