Provenance
The collection, donated in 1902, contains objects from the "Congo State", "German East Africa" and "German South-West Africa". Bethe was also involved in hostilities in the regions concerned, especially "German East Africa". Thus, the possibility of a violent appropriation must be considered. Text: Christoph Rippe.
