Description
Nederlands: Gezicht op de goudkust, tussen Elmina en Maure, op de voorgrond het aan boord brengen van slaven.

Gezicht op de Kust, van Del-Mina tot Moure, uit Barbot en Smith.

Vüe de la Côte depuis Mina jusqu'ay Maure, tirée de Barbot et de Smith.

Legenda: A. Canot Negres de Manfro qui Conduisent des Esclaves a bord: Neger-Kanoos van Manfro, die Slaaven aan Boord brengen.

Het fort op de voorgrond is waarschijnlijk niet het fort te Manfro, maar fort Nassau te Moure. Manfro, of eigenlijk Princes Town, ligt aan de andere kant van Elmina, gezien vanaf Cabo Corso.
