The map displayed

At the time, Bonne was the chief hydrographer to the King of France.
The map is entitled (in French) A Map of Guinee, displaying the
Cape Verde Islands, Senegal and the Guinee Coast, the Kingdoms of
Loango, Congo, Angola and Benguela and the surrounding countries,
so far as they are known.
