This was a research and collection trip to Neumecklenburg (today's New Ireland) in Papua New Guinea, sent by the Museum für Völkerkunde in Berlin. Their goal was the comprehensive ethnographic and anthropological research of the then German colonial area. Stephan's previously created work on South Sea art was the first publication that dealt with the art of this region systematically and from the point of view of a scientist.
