O obrazu

Elmina appears behind its former director in Portrait of Jan Valckenburgh and an Enslaved Servant, attributed to Daniel Vertangen, painted about 1660 and held by the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Valckenburgh served twice as director-general of the fort in present-day Ghana. The young man behind him was among the people African traders brought there for sale to the Dutch. The Dutch West India Company organised the trafficking at Elmina. Over the course of this trade, 550,000 Africans were transported by the Dutch to American and Caribbean destinations. On view in room 2.9.
