Time travel to Indonesia colonial times: Topless women of Bali, Sumatra and Borneo in their daily work. The following images were published in the period of 1900 - 1930. During this time the current Indonesia was still Dutch colony. The pictures show the life in the rural countryside. So one can see scenes from the markets, temples, during weaving of cloth and so on. But also portraits in national costume. These pictures of the rural areas Indonesia show, that the vast majority of girls and women go topless (well into old age).
