Two men sit and work at fashioning a wall out of thin lengths of wood. A woman holding a child stands nearby, looking on. Buildings are visible at the edge of the photograph. The back of the postcard has no handwriting on it. Printed at the bottom of the correspondence section is "Scheut (Kongo) Eigendom van Propriete de Scheut" "Moanda en omstreken. Moanda et ses environs." "Zwarte bouwmeesters aan 't werk. Une patroi de chimbeque."
