EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the historical moment when Dutch sea-captain Piet Hein became a national hero in 1628. In this image, we see Hein standing proudly on the deck of his ship, surrounded by his crew and the spoils of his incredible victory - an entire Spanish silver fleet captured and brought back to Amsterdam in triumph.
The year was 1628, a time when tensions between Spain and the Netherlands were running high. Hein's daring capture of the Spanish fleet not only secured a significant victory for the Dutch navy but also cemented his place in history as a legendary naval captain.
As we gaze upon this powerful image, we can almost feel the sense of pride and accomplishment radiating from Hein and his men. The sheer scale of their achievement is evident in the vast expanse of ships behind them, now under Dutch control thanks to their fearless leader.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library serves as a reminder of Piet Hein's remarkable feat and its lasting impact on Dutch history. It immortalizes a moment that will forever be remembered as one of triumph, heroism, and national pride.
