Description
Nederlands: Fabius wordt hier afgebeeld in het uniform van viceadmiraal van de Nederlandse marine. In de periode 1853-1856 wordt hij drie keer naar Japan gezonden. Hij geeft er les in zeevaarttechnieken aan Japanse marinestudenten. Hij gebruikt het door Nederland aan Japan geschonken raderstoomschip Soembing voor praktijklessen. Veel van zijn studenten zullen belangrijke posities krijgen binnen de Japanse marine. Als blijk van waardering schenkt de Japanse regering hem in 1854 twee zwaarden. Dat is erg bijzonder omdat alleen samurai (de Japanse krijgerklasse) zwaarden mogen dragen. Na een lange carrière bij de marine wordt hij uiteindelijk in 1867 bevorderd tot viceadmiraal. Van 1873 tot 1877 is hij lid van de Tweede Kamer.
English: G. Fabius depicted in the uniform of vice-admiral of the Dutch Navy. Between 1853 and 1856, he was posted in Japan three times. There he taught navigation techniques to Japanese naval students and used the paddle steamer Soembing, a gift from the Dutch, for the practical lessons. Many of his students later held high positions in the Japanese Navy. As token of appreciation, the Japanese government presented him with two swords in 1854. This was quite unusual, as only samurai (members of the military nobility) were allowed to carry swords. After a long career in the Navy, he was finally promoted to vice-admiral in 1867. In the period 1873-1877, he was a member of the Dutch House of representatives.
