"Baziya. Nach der Begrüßung. Evangelisten, Lehrer u.a. Der kleine einzeln gehende rechts ist verkrüppelt, stützt sich auf Stock" ("Baziya. After the greeting. Evangelists, teachers among others. The small one walking alone on the right side is crippled, leaning on a cane"). A group of men, mostly in suits and with hats are walking or standing. Behind them are houses, trees, shrubs and hills. Paul Albert Theile, born in 1908 in Niesky (Germany), was a theologian and preacher. He was no missionary in Africa, but went on an educational journey to East Africa in 1933 and to South Africa in 1934. He was a mission deputy in Montmirail (France) from 1934 till 1938. In 1948 he married Susette Schmidt. After 1962 he was director of the Moravian Church in Switzerland. He died in 1995 in Birsfelden (near Basel / Switzerland).
