Tribesmen in traditional dress, Congo, ca. 1900-1915

Tinted lantern slide showing men from an unnamed community in the Congo wearing traditional dress, and posing with swords and shields. They stand before a large thatched dwelling with an undulating roof. This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.

本着色幻灯玻片（tinted lantern slide）展现了刚果某无名社群的男性身着传统服饰，手持刀剑与盾牌合影留念的场景。他们立于一座屋顶呈波浪起伏状的大型茅草居所前方。该幻灯片隶属于刚果巴洛洛传教团（Congo Balolo Mission）传教士所留存的影像藏品合集；该传教团于1889年由东伦敦国内外传教士培训学院（East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions）牵头创立，1900年后发展为跨教派福音传教团域外传教联盟（Regions Beyond Missionary Union）。
