Maron in Baglen, 1829. This drawing bears rare visual witness to the atrocities committed by the troops under Dutch command during the Java War (1825-1830). Probably drawn by a Dutch officer, the sketch depicts a Javanese village with a Dutch fort. Visible on pikes in the foreground are eight 'severed heads of mutineers'. Right: three deciduous trees with the inscription 'Cemetery'.
