About this work
This series of paintings hanging high in a row here feature various trading posts of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) in Asia. It was a network between which not only products but also enslaved people were transported. The VOC shipped between 660,000 and 1,135,000 people in the 17th and 18th centuries.
