Provenance and sources
Provenance
The object is
part of a collection of objects that Otto Zembsch (1841-1911) donated to
the museum in 1902. Zembsch, who represented the German Empire from 1884
to 1885 as Consul General in Korea and from 1886 to 1901 as Ambassador
to Peru, had been acting Consul of the German Empire in Sāmoa since
1879. It is probable that the objects from Sāmoa were acquired in the
period before 1884. Text: Ulrich Menter
