Sorcerer near Kisangani, Congo, ca.1920-1940

“15 Intérieur d’un sorcier aux environs de Stanleyville. Hoe het er zooal uitziet in de hut van een tovenaar (omtrek van Stanleystad).” A sorcerer poses inside his hut near Stanleyville [Kisangani]. Intricate drawings and carvings completely cover the interior walls. Several human-like forms drawn on wood panels are depicted. The sorcerer’s face is somewhat obscured by his long hair. He appears to be sitting on a drum. The publisher “Phototypie E. Desaix, Bruxelles” and the caption are printed on the back of the postcard. There is no handwriting on the back
