The Trading Post of the Dutch East India Company in Hooghly, Bengal
This canvas was commissioned by Pieter Sterthemius, director of the Hooghly trading post. The scene bustles with activity. Dutch East Indiamen navigate the Ganges River, the director of the trading post visits an Indian dignitary, and at the upper right an act of religious
self-castigation is taking place: a man is suspended from a hook in his ribs and spun around a pole.
