Totem, 1 of a dozen information panels explaining the historical context of the slave trade on the city of Nantes, on the Rue Kervegan on Ile Feydeau, in Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France. Nantes was an important trading port, profiting greatly from the slave trade from 17th - 19th century. The Ile Feydeau area, a former island in the Loire, was developed from the 1720s with large mansions built by wealthy shipowners and slave traders. The Rue Kervegan is its main street, named after Nantes mayor and shipowner Christophe-Clair Danyel de Kervegan, 1735-1817, and houses 20 such buildings. Picture by Manuel Cohen
