About the Item
Johannes Kip's hand-colored antique engraving from 1682 depicts the volcanic island of Ternate, set within the captivating backdrop of the Dutch East Indies. This intricate artwork captures the volcanic landscape of Ternate, renowned for its natural beauty and historical significance in the spice trade.
The print showcases the island's topography, with its volcanic peaks and lush vegetation. Amidst this stunning scenery, Dutch East India Company (VOC) ships grace the waters surrounding Ternate. These vessels, integral to the Dutch trade network, symbolize the region's maritime importance and the VOC's dominance in the spice trade during the 17th century.
Kip's attention to detail and artistic skill brings forth a vivid portrayal of the island's volcanic nature and the bustling activity of VOC ships, highlighting the intersection of natural wonder and colonial commerce in the Dutch East Indies.
Adorned with delicate hand-colored touches, this engraving captures the essence of Ternate's volcanic allure and the historical significance of the Dutch presence in the East Indies. It stands as a testament to the era's exploration, trade, and the allure of distant lands in the 17th century.
