EDITORS COMMENTS
This pen and brown ink drawing by Willem van de Velde, the Elder, depicts the intense action at Tamanana on 9 September 1645 during the 17th century. The Dutch squadron, led by Johan Cornelisz. Lichthart, can be seen engaging in a fierce battle with Portuguese ships in the harbour of Tamanuda on the coast of Brazil. The detailed illustration showcases six Dutch ships strategically positioned in line ahead as they confront their enemies. The 'Eenhoorn', 'Leiden', 'Ree', 'Zoutelandia', 'Overijssel', 'Zeelandia', and 'Ter Veere' are all depicted with precision, each ship playing a crucial role in this historic naval confrontation. The Dutch Admiral's flagship, the 'Utrecht', is shown leading the charge and opening fire on the Portuguese flagship in a dramatic display of power and determination. The grey wash technique used by Van de Velde adds depth and intensity to this dynamic scene, capturing the chaos and excitement of battle at sea. This print from Fine Art Finder offers viewers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in maritime history, highlighting both the skillful artistry of Van de Velde and the bravery of sailors who fought valiantly for control of these treacherous waters.
