Outside the battle for Indonesia's freedom raged
Outside, the struggle for Indonesia's freedom raged. A watercolor drawing portrays men and women within the camp walls, alongside two Japanese laborers and a European soldier. The Dutch flag flies above the camp. At the bottom right, the text describes how, while the battle for Indonesia's freedom raged outside, they remained confined behind bars, guarded by the Allies, while the Japanese carried out chores.
