Candi Srikandi on the Dieng Plateau

Isidore Kinsbergen, 1864-07 - 1864-09

Kinsbergen spent the summer of 1864 on the Dieng Plateau in Central Java. This plateau is located at 2000 metres above sea level and is surrounded by mountain peaks and sulphur springs. Before taking his photograph, Kinsbergen had this small temple from the 9th century CE partially uncovered, in order to reveal the base and floor.
