Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, VOC)
Between 1568 and 1648 the seven provinces of the Dutch Republic were at war with Spain. In 1621, a Twelve Years’ Truce ended without the need to extend it. Hostilities between the Republic and Spain resumed. During that period, international trade continued to flourish. The Dutch commercial companies at that time were the largest commercial private companies or multinationals around the globe, in particular the Dutch East India Company (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, VOC). It would spread all of its activities mainly in the direction of Asia. Rembrandt would paint several regents of the VOC, the Dutch abbreviation for the United East-India Company.
The VOC brought wealth to Amsterdam, as well as new, exiting exotic sensations. One of them was an elephant. Let me tell you the story. If you have listened to my podcast ‘Amsterdam – City of Migrants’, RM24007, you’ll remember I touched upon the dark side of the VOC too.

For a few years I did extensive research, leading to my book of Rembrandt’s Money. The legal and financial life of an artist-entrepreneur in 17th century Holland. The first edition of the book Rembrandt’s Money, published in autumn 2021. It is nearly sold out.
