EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dutch East Indiaman 1647 Etching first state" takes us back in time to witness the meticulous craftsmanship and bustling activity of a bygone era. The image showcases a magnificent Dutch East Indiaman, an iconic vessel that played a significant role in maritime trade during the 17th century. The etching, created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a talented Bohemian artist from Prague who later settled in London, beautifully captures the essence of this majestic ship. Measuring at an impressive size of 142 x 237 cm, the print allows us to appreciate every intricate detail. In this scene, we see six skilled carpenters diligently caulking planks on the hull of the ship while it is careened in a harbor. The deck is fully fitted out with equipment and supplies as sailors treat underwater timber. Black smoke billows from afar, adding an air of mystery to the atmosphere. The image transports us into a world where hardworking men dedicate their expertise to ensure these vessels are seaworthy for long voyages across treacherous waters. It serves as a reminder of our rich maritime history and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to exploration and trade. Artokoloro's masterful reproduction brings this historical moment alive once again through its high-quality prints. This print is not only visually stunning but also offers viewers an opportunity to delve into our past and appreciate the artistry involved in creating such remarkable ships.
