Augsbourg, (ca. 1781).Contemporary handcoloured perspective view (vue d'optique or Guckkastenbild) by Bergmüller. Ca. 31 x 44,5 cm (including margins). Rare and handsome optical view of the bay and town of St. Eustatius also known affectionately to the locals as Statia, part of the Caribbean Netherlands, with numerous sailing boats in the foreground. It shows the island of St. Eustatius taken by the English fleet in February 1781. Admiral Rodney's sailors and troops pillaged the island. The Dutch regained control over the devastated island in 1784.On 16th November 1776, the Dutch commander of St. Eustatius, Johannes de Graaff, ordered a salute to be fired from the Dutch Fort Orange to the flag of the rebellious English colonies in North America. The North Americans regarded this salute as recognition of their independence and first acknowledgment by a foreign power. - A very attractive view. [Boeknr.: 21616 ]
