Picture was probably taken sometime during 1904-1910.

By 1904, most of Aceh was under Dutch control, and had an indigenous government that "cooperated" with the colonial state. Colonial influence in the remote highland areas of Aceh was never substantial, however, and limited guerrilla resistance remained. Led mostly by the religious ulema, intermittent fighting continued until about 1910, and parts of the province were still not "pacified".
