Deed of liberation of a slave on the Ile de Goree, Senegal, 17th February 1789, signed by Francois Blanchot de Verly, 1735-1807, governor of Senegal, in the Musee d'histoire de Nantes, in the Chateau des ducs de Bretagne, in Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France. This document frees a slave who denounced a revolt in Goree, occupied by the French from 1674, an important stopover for slave ships. The museum opened in 2007 and covers the history of Nantes, focusing on slavery, world wars, industrialisation and the chateau. Picture by Manuel Cohen
