"Kapstadt mit dem Tafelberg." ("Cape Town with the Table Mountain."). In the foreground on the left a kind of palm tree and a meadow with stones and foursquared stone blocks, possibly an old graveyard. In the center and background to the left Cape Town. To the left a bay and the sea. In the background Table Mountain. Imprinted on the image: "Kapstadt. S.-Afrika. 399b." ("Cape Town. S[outh] Africa. 399b."). Cf. photos no. 399, 400 and 517. -- Photo no. 400, no. 517 and especially no. 399 show very similar views. -- On the back of the picture is written: "Brüdergemeine" ("the Moravian Church") and "Capstadt mit Tafelberg" ("Cape Town with Table Mountain."). The shape of what is written on its back can be seen on the picture due to a probably hard pen used to write down these notes on the back.
