Item comes from the estate of a deceased. Has always been stored in the dark. Is being sold by the heirs of (just discovered these online auction possibilities).
The Rotterdam sculptor Van Kralingen designed the last truly antique medal for the Association; a subject that belongs more to the 1930s than to the 1960s. The South Holland naval hero Witte Cornelisz. de With, who died 300 years ago, worked under Tromp, but did not become commander-in-chief after his death. Van Kralingen has depicted him in profile, fully armoured; the straight, unwashed hair is striking; the hands and head are clearly visible. The reverse side gives a panoramic impression of a sea battle: six large ships and five small to very small ships in a loose arrangement with a very schematic representation of the sea that should and could connect everything. The medal was created in close collaboration with the Rotterdam Art Foundation.
