Three teachers with brother Renkewitz, Cape Town, South Africa

"3 Lehrer [Mitte: Rasmus?] mit Br. Renkewitz" ("3 teachers [in the middle: Rasmus?] with br[other] Renkewitz"). Four men, two of them sitting, the other two standing. They are wearing dark suits. One of the men is having a long beard and is sitting on an elegant chair [apparently, this is brother Renkewitz].

He died in 1937 in Neuwied. [Inheritance Marx families]
