EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling energy of Surabaya, the second largest city in Indonesia and historical capital of the Eastern Province on the island of Java. Previously known as Soerbaja during the Dutch East Indies era, the city has a rich and complex history that is reflected in its vibrant streets. In this scene, we see a busy intersection filled with a mix of transportation modes typical of Surabaya in the mid-20th century. On the left, a traditional Dutch-style wagon, pulled by two porters, makes its way through the crowd. The wagon, a common sight in Surabaya during this time, was used for transporting goods and merchandise throughout the city. On the right, modern cars and automobiles can be seen, symbolizing the intersection of the old and new. The Dutch colonial influence is further evident in the architecture of the buildings in the background, with their distinctive Dutch gabled roofs and whitewashed facades. Despite the hustle and bustle, there is a sense of order and organization in the scene, with pedestrians and vehicles navigating the intersection with ease. The people in the photograph, dressed in traditional Indonesian attire and Western-style clothing, add to the rich tapestry of cultural influences that make Surabaya such a unique and fascinating place. This photograph is a testament to the dynamic and complex history of Surabaya, a city that has weathered colonial rule, political upheaval, and modernization to emerge as a thriving metropolis and cultural hub in Indonesia.
