EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Dutch East India Company Trading Posts of Lawec in Cambodia, painted by Johannes Vinckeboons in the 17th century. The oil on canvas artwork measures 97x140 cm and is currently housed at the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The Dutch East India Company (VOC) was a prominent trading company during the 17th and 18th centuries, with its Asian headquarters located in Batavia (now Jakarta) on Java Island. This particular painting depicts their trading posts in Lawec, near Phnom Penh, where they procured essential food provisions like rice and meat for Batavia. The image offers a glimpse into the bustling trade activities that took place between Europe and Asia during this era. It highlights the significant role played by Dutch colonial powers in establishing settlements and conducting trade across various regions. Vinckeboons' artistry beautifully captures an aerial view of Lawec's landscape, showcasing both natural beauty and human-made structures. The painting reflects elements of the Dutch Golden Age style prevalent at that time. As we admire this historical masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' collection, it serves as a reminder of how exploration and commerce shaped our world centuries ago.
