EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning view of Batavia, the Asian capital of the Dutch East India Company (VOC), during the 17th and 18th centuries. Painted by Hendrick Dubbels, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of a bustling trading port in Java, now known as Jakarta. The focal point of this artwork is not only Batavia itself but also the majestic mountain range that serves as its backdrop. The Salak, Pangerango, and Gede mountains stand tall and proud, adding a touch of natural beauty to an otherwise industrious scene. During this era, the VOC thrived as one of history's most influential trading companies. Its ships sailed from Holland to Asia, establishing colonies and dominating commerce throughout Indonesian territories. This painting symbolizes their dominance with its depiction of busy harbors filled with East Indiamen vessels. As we gaze upon this piece today at Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the grandeur and significance of Dutch colonial rule during what is often referred to as the Golden Age. It serves as a reminder not only of historical events but also highlights how art can capture moments that transcend time itself.
