"Gezicht op Sandelbrug en werf aan de Wampoe-rivier, Tandjong Poera, Langkat Sumatra" is a black and white photograph taken by Heinrich Ernst & Co. around 1900-1905, now in the Rijksmuseum. It captures a serene scene of a river in Sumatra, Indonesia. The foreground features a large tree trunk, framing a view of a wooden bridge over the Wampoe river and a shipyard on the opposite bank, offering a glimpse into daily life and the natural beauty of the region. The image is a testament to the photographic documentation of the Dutch East Indies in the early 20th century.
