Image description

The King of the Congo receives Portuguese soldiers as three Christian missionaries stand beside the King. In the previous century, the King Nzinga Nvemba (1506-1543) converted to Christianity and became allied with Portugal. The slave trade grew to dominate all other commerce, eventually destroying the social and political structure of the Kingdom. Ca. 1650
