"Family of Negro Slaves from Loango" is a significant historical engraving created by the renowned British artist William Blake in 1792. It serves as plate 69 in the "Narrative of a Five Years Expedition against the Revolted Negroes of Surinam," a seminal work by John Gabriel Stedman first published in 1796. The narrative, which was later reissued in 1806, details Stedman's experiences and observations during his time in Suriname as a part of a military operation to suppress a slave rebellion.

The engraving depicts a family of enslaved Africans from the Loango coast, which is located in the present-day Republic of Congo. It is a poignant representation of the human cost of the transatlantic slave trade and the conditions of enslaved people in the colonies. Blake, who was known for his expressive and often visionary artwork, as well as his humanist and anti-slavery beliefs, brings a powerful emotional depth to the image. The work reflects both Blake's artistic skill and his engagement with the pressing social issues of his time, particularly the abolitionist movement in Britain.

The image is notable for its detailed rendering and the dignified portrayal of its subjects, which contrasts with the dehumanizing conditions of slavery. It serves as a historical document that provides insight into the lives of enslaved Africans and the cultural origins of the people who were forcibly brought to the Americas. "Family of Negro Slaves from Loango" is an important work in the oeuvre of William Blake and remains a poignant reminder of the brutal history of slavery. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit, its historical significance, and its role in the broader narrative of human rights and social justice.
