Mesa de Anguila is the mesa that is between Lajitas and Santa Elena Canyon, and is in the Big Bend National Park.   The view in this painting is a bird's eye view with Mexico on the left side of the Rio Grande and Texas on the right side.    The clearly visible winding of Rio Grande from this mesa appeared to the early visitors as an eel ...  naming it Mesa de Anguila,  which means Eel Mesa.
