Description

An exceptional early 20th-century art postcard from Panorama du Congo , created by Belgian artists Paul Mathieu and Alfred Bastien. This scene captures Matadi’s riverside market and the “Cauldron of Hell” section of the Congo River with remarkable chromolithographic detail. Printed in Brussels by Éditions d’Art E. Mertens, this card reflects the vivid, painterly artistry typical of colonial Belgian depictions of the Congo.

  2. Exactly as advertised and in great condition. Packages was tightly wrapped in plastic with no shipping damage. Book wasn’t terribly expensive but I didn’t cross reference others online, but for me it was a fair price. I bought two books for different sellers and this seller shipped promptly with frequent updates
