Beneath a vast Indonesian sky, the grandeur of Istiqlal Mosque commands both reverence and awe. Captured in this serene photographic postcard, the mosque’s iconic dome and soaring minaret reflect majestically in the surrounding water gardens, offering a moment of calm within the energetic heart of Jakarta. The brilliant sunlight, bold structure, and natural symmetry all speak to a national spirit rooted in unity and faith.

Photographed by Yan Kurniawan and published by Tropix (ref. T-121), this card celebrates a modern architectural masterpiece completed in 1978 to commemorate Indonesian independence. As the largest mosque in Southeast Asia, Istiqlal stands as both a religious centre and national monument. This image, likely produced in the early 2000s, offers excellent print clarity and is part of a well-regarded tourist and cultural series documenting the landmarks of Indonesia.

Ideal for collectors of Islamic architecture, Southeast Asian landmarks, or Jakarta ephemera, this postcard is a powerful reminder of Indonesia’s post-colonial resurgence. Owning it is to preserve a visual emblem of freedom, unity, and monumental design.
