Indonesia / Netherlands: 'Atjeh' (Aceh). A political comment by Albert Hahn, Amsterdam,20 January 1912. Aceh War (1873-1914).

In this 1912 political sketch by Albert Hahn, a Dutch soldier surveys an Acehnese family he has just killed. The text below reads: 'Wij zijn geen wreede italianen. Wij vermoorden onzen tegenstanders niet, maar leggen ze neer. En als wij wat vrouwen en kinderen dooden, gebeurt dat slechts bij ongeluk', or 'We are not cruel Italians. We murder our enemies, but we bury them. And as for women and children, that only ever happens by accident'. The Aceh War, also known as the Dutch War or the Infidel War (1873–1914), was an armed military conflict between the Sultanate of Aceh and the Netherlands which was triggered by discussions between representatives of Aceh and the United Kingdom in Singapore during early 1873. The war was part of a series of conflicts in the late 19th century that consolidated Dutch rule over modern-day Indonesia.
