Mask, Hotel des Freres Raimbaud, Ile Feydeau, Nantes, France
Mask representing fire, on the facade of the Hotel des Freres Raimbaud, an 18th century mansion on the Quai Turenne on Ile Feydeau, in Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France. The building is listed as a historic monument. Nantes was an important trading port, profiting greatly from the slave trade from 17th - 19th century, although the Rimbaud brothers were wood merchants. 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. Picture by Manuel Cohen
