Description |
Nederlands: Nederlanders op gezantschap bij de Congolese koning Don Alvarez in 1642.
Don Alvari Rix I Congo. Dit gezantschap vond plaats naar aanleiding van de verovering van Loanda in 1642. Dr. Olfert Dapper (1636-1689) publiceerde na 1663 een groot aantal boeken. Hij schreef een geschiedenis van de stad Amsterdam en verzorgde de eerste Nederlandse vertaling van Herodotus. Hij is echter vooral bekend vanwege zijn vele beschrijvingen van vreemde landen die hij uit verschillende bronnen samenstelde, zonder dat hij de landen waarover hij schreef ooit zag. Deze afbeelding is afkomstig uit een beschrijving van Afrika. Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, Den Haag, inv. nr. 3032 B 12 na p. 257, inv. nr. 693 C 6 dl VI, to. p. 316 en inv. nr. 693 C 5 dl V, to. p. 2.English: Dutch mission to the Congolese king Don Alvarez in 1642.
Don Alvari Rix I Congo. This embassy took place after the Dutch conquest of Loanda in 1642. Dr Olfert Dapper (1636-1689) published a large number of books after 1663. He wrote a history of the city of Amsterdam and furnished the first Dutch translation of Herodotus. But he is known particularly for his many descriptions of foreign lands which he compiled from various sources, without ever seeing the countries he wrote about for himself. This plate is taken from a description of Africa. Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, The Hague, inv. nr. 3032 B 12 na p. 257, inv. nr. 693 C 6 dl VI, to. p. 316 and inv. nr. 693 C 5 dl V, to p. 2 |
