File:Sebele I by Fritsch 1865.jpg

According to Keith Dietrich and Andrew Bank in An eloquent picture gallery : the South African portrait photographs of Gustav Theodor Fritsch, 1863 - 1865 (2008), "Fritsch’s books and articles have never been translated into English and only a few of his photographs have been published [...] The photographs from the Museum of Ethnology are archived in Albums 13, 15, 18, 28, 30 and 32. Album 13 contains 126 full-negative reprints of Fritsch’s South African photographs that formed part of Carl Dammann’s Anthropologisch-ethnologisches Album in Photographien herausgegeben mit Unterstützung aus der Sammlung der Berliner Anthropologischen Gesellschaft (1874)". The picture appears in album 32 and it was first published in 2008, long after its copyright expired in 1997.
