Witte Corneliszoon de With Aboard Ship – 19th-Century Hand-Colored Lithograph

About the Item

Witte Corneliszoon de With Aboard Ship – 19th-Century Hand-Colored Lithograph This 19th-century hand-colored lithograph portrays Witte Corneliszoon de With, a bold and controversial Dutch admiral who served during the Eighty Years' War and the First Anglo-Dutch War. Born in 1599 in Hoogendijk, De With was known for his strict discipline, outspoken character, and bravery in numerous sea battles. He was both a rival and sometime ally of other great Dutch naval commanders such as Maarten Tromp and Michiel de Ruyter. The portrait shows De With seated confidently aboard a warship, with a cannon positioned beside him and rigging sketched in the background. He wears an ornate sash and medallion across his armor, signaling his high rank and distinguished service. A sword rests at his side, and his hat lies nearby, completing the composition of a commanding yet composed figure in the theater of naval warfare. This lithograph was drawn by Herman ten Kate and printed by P W van de Weijer in Utrecht around 1850. The image is lithographed and finished with hand coloring, lending the print subtle texture and depth. The condition is good, with minimal aging, rich tones, and sharp details throughout. Framing suggestion: This historic naval portrait pairs well with a dark wood frame and muted archival matting in navy or grey. Use UV-protective glass to preserve the color and paper quality.

Maarten Harpertszoon Tromp – Dutch Admiral, 19th-Century Hand-Colored Lithograph Item Description: This 19th-century hand-colored lithograph portrays Maarten Harpertszoon Tromp, one of the most legendary naval commanders of the Dutch Republic. Born in 1598, Tromp served as a lieutenant admiral and played a crucial role during the Eighty Years’ War and the First Anglo-Dutch War.
