Construction of a bridge across the Monjo river in Marangu, Tanzania, ca.1901-1910

"Brückenbau über den Monjo-Fluß in der Landschaft Marangu" ("Contruction of a bridge across the Monjo river in the landscape Marangu"). 12 African workers are squatting on the ground. Two others, one in a turban and one in European dress are standing. A European man in a sun helmet stands in the front. On the ground a shovel. On the left the river. In the background trees. The picture is blurred. -- The picture was probably taken by Johannes Schanz (1876-1963). He worked as a missionary of the Leipzig Mission in Moshi and Mamba from 1901 to 1910.
