Sends drawings of a donkey that African condos have made at his missionary pupil in D e u t s c h - O s t a f r i k a . Is disappointed by the drawings ("only poor traces of nature observations"), since with the Konde hut painting is actually common, but mostly women's work. Send photo of the 12 draughtsmen.

On the drawings of 12 condescents [cf. NA Wundt/III/1001-1100/1026/97-126]: Finds Wundts thesis interesting that the condescents can draw better from memory; wants to pass this on to his missionary pupil. Woundert's thesis that the Konde paint from right to left because they are influenced by Arabic contradicts this. Sees cause for it in other models or in the absence of models, which lead to the natural movement of the right hand to the left. Next year he travels to East Africa and offers Wundt to do research for him there.
