EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting showcases "The Arms of the Dutch East India Company and of the Town of Batavia" by Jeronimus Becx, a renowned Dutch artist from the 17th century. The artwork, measuring 63A--97 cm, is currently housed in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The painting depicts the emblematic coat of arms representing both the powerful Dutch East India Company (VOC) and the thriving town of Batavia, known today as Jakarta in Java. It serves as a vivid reminder of VOC's dominance during its peak years between the 17th and 18th centuries. Intricately detailed, this masterpiece portrays various elements symbolizing trade and maritime prowess. The image features majestic ships sailing through vast oceans with swords held high, shields adorned with heraldry motifs, and spears pointing towards new horizons. A laurel wreath encircles these symbols to signify victory and success. Notably, Jan Pietersz Coen played a significant role in shaping Batavia's history. In 1619, he conquered Jacatra (now Jakarta), renaming it Batavia while establishing essential infrastructure such as castles, dockyards, warehouses, and offices that propelled VOC's influence throughout Asia. Becx skillfully captures this historical transformation through his brushstrokes—showcasing not only architectural marvels but also mythical figures like Neptune alongside mermaids—a nod to Dutch colonial expansion across Indonesian waters. "The Arms of the Dutch East India Company and of the Town of Batavia" stands as an enduring testament to VOC's legacy—an era when commerce thrived under their banner—and continues to fascinate art enthusiasts worldwide for its rich symbolism intertwined with maritime history.
