EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a moment of triumph and prosperity for the Dutch fishing industry after the Second Anglo-Dutch War. In this allegorical scene, a group of distinguished Dutch admirals stands proudly on the shore of the sea, symbolizing their role in restoring and flourishing the nation's fishery. In the foreground, some of these admirals bring in a net filled with an abundant catch of fish, representing the bountiful returns that resulted from their efforts. On the right side, hunters accompanied by dogs gather around a grotto-like fountain adorned with a statue of Neptune and seahorses. This imagery further emphasizes the maritime theme and highlights Neptune as the god associated with water and fishing. Amongst those depicted are renowned historical figures such as David Vlugh, Aert van Nes, Tjerk Hiddes de Vries, Isaac Sweers, Adriaen Banckert, Engel de Ruyter, Michiel Adriaensz de Ruyter, Pieter Florisz , Cornelis Tromp , Cornelis Evertsen de Jonge , Jan Cornelisz Meppel , Aucke Stellingwerff , Egbert M. Cortenaer , Johan Evertsen the Elder , Pieter de Bitter , and Jacob Binckes . These commanders-in-chief played crucial roles in securing victory for Dutch forces during this period. Painted on canvas using oil paint between 1667-1671 by Willem Eversdijck (attributed to), this remarkable group portrait not only celebrates military achievements but also pays homage to those who contributed to reviving one of Holland's most important industries - sea and coastal fishery.
