Default Ensete in Holland 1905

Am I mistaking or is this really an Ensete on the photo?

Anybody else old pictures with Bananas on it, could be interesting
to see where they grew many years ago.

Old paintings count too..

I would say it looks like an Afirican Ensete Ventricosum but it wasn't
described properly I think in 1905. In any case, this is the proof it was cultivated in Holland around that time. I have seen another picture from it around 1900 in Holland but can't find it at the moment.
