Rokende vulkaan in Nederlands-Indië 1912

"Rokende vulkaan in Nederlands-Indië," a photograph by Onnes Kurkdjian from 1912, captures a dramatic eruption of a volcano in the Dutch East Indies. The image showcases the power of nature, as a massive plume of smoke billows from the crater, casting an ominous shadow over the surrounding landscape. The photograph, printed in black and white, creates a stark contrast between the dark, rugged terrain of the volcano and the bright, swirling clouds. Kurkdjian's photograph provides a glimpse into the natural wonders and the dangers present in the Dutch East Indies, a popular destination for photographers during this period.
