"Kazerne van Boma" is a photograph of a settlement in the Congo, likely taken before 1892. The image shows a collection of buildings and possibly a port, suggesting a colonial outpost. This work was likely included in a larger publication about the colonial expansion into the Congo. The photo's inclusion in this text suggests the importance of Boma as a site of control and administration in the colonial era. The image itself, though small (27 mm x 100 mm), provides valuable insight into the realities of colonialism in the Congo, emphasizing the role of European settlements and the importance of this particular location.
