ADELS, Wiert. Wiert Adels. Stuurman op het Hollandsch kofschip De Bloeijende Blom, die zig van dezen bodem, na dat dezelve door de Franschen genomen, met veel bravoure meester gemaakt en den 5 Augustus te Hellevoet opgebracht heeft. (Middelburg), W.A. Keel, (1796).Half-length mezzotint portrait by Charles Howard Hodges after Jacobus Perkois. Ca. 26,5 x 21,5 cm. (Margins trimmed). Wiert Adels was steersman for the ship De Bloeyende Blom which was bringing grain from the Baltic port of Libau. A Duinkerk privateer seized his ship but after a few days he managed to recapture his ship and to seize the chief of the privateers and to throw him overboard. Thus he succeeded to bring his ship into Hellevoetsluis in 1794. This fine engraved portrait of a brave sailor was done by the English mezzotint master Hodges (1764-1837) after a drawing by Perkois (1756-1804). Hodges worked in Amsterdam and was a famous portret painter around 1800. His mezzotint engraving is of very high quality. Cf. Van Someren 227; Muller, Portetten, 17; Van der Feltz 626.

In 1641 and 1642 he served under Admiral Gijssels. With the rank of rear admiral, he was captain of the merchant vessel De Haze, which had been converted into a warship. In 1644 De Ruyter bought his own ship, the Salamander. He then sailed as an independent captain-merchant, mainly on the West Indies and Barbary (North Africa). He became admiral-in-chief of the Dutch fleet and his achievements with the Dutch Navy during the Anglo-Dutch Wars earned him the reputation as one of the most skilled naval commanders in history. He captured the English flag-ship Royal Charles at Chatham. De Ruyter was fatally wounded in a battle against the French fleet at Messina near Sicily in 1676.

With engraved portrait, engraving depicting tomb and folding plate of the funeral, and 5 (of 6) folding plates depicting naval battles scenes in Sicily. Nijborg, Algiers, Kijkduin and Plymouth (missing Rochester - Chatham). First published in folio in 1687. - Biography of one of the most famous admirals in Dutch history, Michiel Adriaenszn. de Ruyter (1607-1676), also of great interest for Dutch political and economic history. Dealing with the early voyages to Jan Mayen Island (whaling), Morocco (Barbary Coast), during this time his esteem grew among other Dutch captains as he would regularly free Christian slaves by redeeming them at his own expense, and the Baltic: he managed to liberate Nyborg in 1659, for this he was knighted by the Danish king Frederick III of Denmark. After he recaptured Guinea on the English in 1664 he crossed the Atlantic to raid the English colonies in America. Visited the Caribbean islands, delivered supplies to the Dutch colony of St. Eustatius, and was engaged in Spanish-Dutch sea-fights and conquests. Giving the damage he had sustained at a certain moment he decided against an assault on New York to retake New-Netherland. He fought the English in the first three Anglo-Dutch Wars. His most famous exploit was against the English fleet: the Raid on the Medway in 1667. He sailed up the Thames to Chatham and burned three ships and captured the English flagship HMS Royal Charles, which he took with him back to Holland. It was a costly and embarrassing defeat for the English. On 18 March 1678 De Ruyter was given a state funeral when his body was buried in the Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam. He was succeeded as supreme commander by Cornelis Tromp in 1679. De Ruyters' flagship De Zeven Provinciën is being rebuilt in the Dutch town Lelystad. - (Some marginal staining).Cat.
