Antique Print of the Batavia Massacre 'Present-Day Jakarta', Indonesia

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Tableau de la Partie de Batavia, ou s'est fait proprement le terrible Massacre des Chinois (..)'. Original antique print of the Batavia massacre. The 1740 Batavia massacre (Dutch: Chinezenmoord, literally “Murder of the Chinese”; Indonesian: Geger Pacinan, meaning “Chinatown Tumult”) was a pogrom of ethnic Chinese in the port city of Batavia (present-day Jakarta) in the Dutch East Indies. The violence inside the city lasted from 9 October until 22 October 1740, with minor skirmishes outside the walls continuing late into November that year. Historians have estimated that at least 10,000 ethnic Chinese were massacred; just 600 to 3,000 are believed to have survived. Engraved by J. van Schley, published circa 1740.
