Artist
Johannes Vingboons
Johannes Vingboons is a Dutch Golden Age artist. 7 works are cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum.
Dutch painters in the 1600s mapped the world on canvas—Johannes Vingboons turned trade routes into art. His oil paintings document ports and forts from Cochin to Banda, each view labeled like a sailor’s logbook. Look at View of Cochin on the Malabar Coast of India and you’ll see palm-lined shores and Dutch flags where ships once anchored. Curious about the 17th-century spice trade? Tap into View of Iudea, the Capital of Siam to step into a bustling Southeast Asian harbor.
