Description
Photograph of cooking pots at a wedding. Behind the pots the bridegroom Richard Norris with his wife and others are standing. In front missionary Heinrich Hohls is sitting on the ground. Typewritten text on the back reading: "Kochtöpfe bei einer Hochzeit der Schwarzen. Das Brautpaar, der Lehrer R.Norris in Hermannsburg, Natal, steht links die Braut mit einem weissen Sonnenschirm. (das ist bei den Schwarzen so Mode, die Braut muss immer einen weissen Sonnenschirm haben. Missionar Hohls sitzt vorn, hat ein Stück Fleisch auf der Gabel. Da zuviel Rauch bei dem offenen Feuer war, so sind die Leute nicht deutlich zu sehen." ("Cooking pots at a wedding of the blacks. The bridal couple, the teacher R.Norris in Hermannsburg, Natal, is standing to the left the bride with a white parasol. (this is the fashion of the blacks, the bride always must have a white parasol. Missionary Hohls is sitting in front, with a piece of meat on the fork. Because there was too much smoke at the open fire, the people are not clearly visible.")
