Description Depiction of Douville's camp on the edge of the Couango River in modern Angola. The camp consists of a number of small huts, as well as a larger, grander one, from whose thatched roof a flag waves. A number of people, and a few animals, appear on the outskirts of the camp. Four boats sail along the river, and two other camps can be seen in the background.
