Description
View of the river Niger and the tropical forest in an area located in today’s Nigeria, showing numerous rowing boats on the water, one of which has just capsized, leaving its occupants waiting for the approaching rescue.
According to the map included at the beginning of the volume, “Ibu” could be the modern-day Aboh, or a place in its vicinity.
