Transport van het borstbeeld van Michiel de Ruyter naar de Kweekschool voor de Zeevaart te Amsterdam, 1819 1819

A. Lutz's 1819 print depicts a historical event in Amsterdam: the transport of Michiel de Ruyter's bust from the Kweekschool voor de Zeevaart to the Kinsbergen canal. The detailed scene captures the bustle of activity as rowing boats ferry the bust across the water, witnessed by a crowd of onlookers. This work, measuring 296 mm in height and 332 mm in width, provides a glimpse into the Dutch naval tradition and the commemoration of its heroes.
