EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "View port of Arakan" takes us back in time to the 17th and 18th centuries, when the Dutch East India Company played a significant role in global trade. The image showcases a bustling harbor scene with ships and vessels dotting the river estuary. The town of Arakan, located on this picturesque waterfront, comes alive as its local population engages in various maritime activities. Silhouetted against the setting sun, we see an array of boats gracefully floating on the water's surface. Among them is a magnificent buffalo standing upright on its hind legs, seemingly defying gravity. This intriguing sight adds an element of mystique to an already enchanting view. As we delve deeper into this historical snapshot, it becomes evident that this port was not only a hub for commerce but also served as a source of pleasure for both locals and visitors alike. However, let us not forget that behind these serene waters lies a tumultuous past - one marred by violence symbolized by the stabbing animals depicted in the foreground. Captured by Quint Lox from Liszt Collection, this extraordinary piece transports us to another era where nautical adventures unfolded daily amidst breathtaking natural beauty. It serves as a reminder of our rich maritime heritage and invites contemplation about how history has shaped our present-day world.
