"Gezicht op een rivier met uitspanning te Laut Tador op Sumatra" is a black and white photograph by Carl J. Kleingrothe, taken before 1898. The photograph depicts a serene river scene in Sumatra, Indonesia, with a small hut on a small island in the middle of the river, framed by lush greenery. The photograph is a valuable record of a time before the modern era, offering a glimpse into the natural beauty of Southeast Asia and the life of the local people who lived in the area. The image is a good example of the genre of travel photography, documenting a journey to a foreign land. The photograph is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, showcasing the cultural and historical significance of the Dutch colonial era in the region.
