Congo-Noël; publié au profit de la Villa coloniale (Sanatorium de Watermael)
A Brussels publication of 1902, Congo-Noël, issued in aid of the Villa coloniale sanatorium at Watermael, presenting Congo scenes to a Belgian readership. The photographs show a seated figure in a drum-like vessel, men hauling a rope up a rocky slope, a dugout canoe on dark water, and a plantation of agave and a standing man among tall crops, captioned in French with plain documentary framing a designer could draw on for early photographic reportage.
