Merchant Ship of the Dutch East India Company, 1782
Nagasaki School, published by Toshimaya
Hand coloured woodblock print. 65 x 58 cm
Found this card yesterday and snapped it up - how could I not?
It's amazing to see a Japanese artwork, depicting the Dutch Flag so heavily.
The Dutch East India Company was established in 1602, to carry out colonial activities in Asia. (wiki)
