Title of Book : Tuanku Nan Renceh
Hence the meaning of renceh in Minang Tuanku Nan Renceh in his daily life is thought to be dressed like the clothes of most Paderi followers, with a turban and shaved hair. As described by PJ. Veth in "De Geschiedenis van Sumatra".
During the period of the Paderi War, dry cameras or dry plate cameras had not yet been invented. This type of camera became popular and was used in Europe in 1857. So we are increasingly convinced that Indonesian heroes who fought during the Paderi War, no one has been recorded or photographed. Because at that time, the camera had not been developed perfectly. There were only simple paintings or sketches. I need to explain this because in some media there are kleim, opinions and stories that explain the existence of a photo of the figure of Tuanku Nan Renceh. If there is a face sketch or painting based on stories and analysis, we can only accept it. But for his full figure in photos, paintings or sketches from primary sources as far as I know, it does not exist or has not been found.
