EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Island Onrust near Batavia (Jakarta) in all its maritime glory. The focal point of the image is the bustling shipyard on the island, where skilled craftsmen meticulously work on warships that will soon set sail into uncharted waters. On the left side of the frame, a majestic warship proudly displays the coat of arms of Amsterdam on its mirror, symbolizing both power and prestige. It stands tall and resolute after undergoing meticulous calibration to ensure its readiness for battle. Meanwhile, on the right side, another warship releases a thunderous salvo into the air, showcasing its formidable firepower. The scene is further enlivened by several sloops gracefully gliding across calm waters, one proudly hoisting a flag adorned with the arms of VOC (Dutch East India Company), representing their dominance in trade and exploration. In this vibrant setting, traditional windmills dotting the landscape stand as iconic symbols of Dutch engineering prowess while towering palm trees add an exotic touch to this tropical paradise. The artist behind this masterpiece is believed to be Abraham Storck or someone closely associated with his style. Painted in 1699 using oil paint on canvas, it measures 77 cm in height and 110 cm in width
