"Junge Männer pressen Pflanzen für Pflanzensammlungen von Br. Stolz." ("Young men press plants for Br[other] Stolz' herbarium."). Six young Africans squatting, one standing on a long bricked porch pressing plants. A small kind of hammock is hanging down from the wooden framed roof. In the background: a house with a tree in front of it. Adolf Ferdinand Stolz (1871-1917) was a mission trader of the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeine in Ipanya from 1898 to 1902 and in Kyimbila from 1903 to 1914.
