Description: "Begrüßungsfeier in Mbozi! Geschw. Tietzen bei ihrer Ankunft in Mbozi..." ("Welcome party in Mbozi! Brethren Tietzen at their arrival in Mbozi"). A crowd of people around two people with hats (apparently, these are the brethren Tietzen). In the front a boy who is holding a stick in his hands. In the background a house and trees.
Theodor Tietzen (1893-1973) was a missionary of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine. Having married Hildegard Marie Lenz in 1921 and served in South Africa (West) from 1922 to 1927, he moved to East Africa, where he served in Mbozi till 1929 and in Utengule till 1939. In the 1950s he returned to South Africa.
