Niokolo-Koba Framed Poster
A green monkey sits on the planks of a rope footbridge, one hand on the blue guide rope, its tail hanging over the edge. The bridge runs straight away from you into dense green forest, palms rising above it. In the river below, a hippopotamus watches from the water.

Niokolo-Koba
Niokolo-Koba gave the brand its name. It became a national park in 1954 and a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1981: 913,000 hectares of wooded savannah and gallery forest in south-east Senegal. The Gambia River crosses it, on its way from Guinea to the Atlantic, and hippos live in the river. The Derby eland is the largest antelope in the world, and its western form survives in the wild nowhere but here. UNESCO took the park off its list of World Heritage in Danger in July 2024, after seventeen years.
The design
One travel poster per place: a scene drawn in flat colour under heavy black lines, no gradients, and the name of the place across the top in large hand-drawn capitals. No two places in a chapter share the same background colour. The print file is 7200 × 10800 pixels, which is 300 dpi at the largest size.
The frame
An ayous wood frame, 1.9 cm thick, from renewable forests, in black, white or red oak. The poster is printed on thick matte paper at 189 g/m² and sits behind an acrylite front protector, which is lighter than glass and does not shatter. Hanging hardware is in the box. Shipping is charged on wall art.
Made to order
Every Niokolo piece is made once the order comes in, one at a time. Nothing is held in stock, and nothing gets made that no one asked for.
Niokolo is a clothing and wall-art label built on African heritages: one chapter per country, ten places per chapter, and a hippo born in the Gambia River doing the travelling. Chapter 1 is Senegal. Wear your roots.
