Dutch School (18th century)
'Portrait of first vice-admiral Baron Pieter Melvill van Carnbee (1743-1826)', unsigned, oil on canvas. H. 115 cm. W. 92 cm. Verso dated 1787 on the wooden stretcher. Van Carnbee was a captain, first vice-admiral in Dutch service, member of the Provincial States of Holland, Council of State, member of the Central Committee of the Navy and Colonies. As a naval officer he travelled to the waters near Algiers, to the Mediterranean Sea and to the West Indies. He also fought at Gibraltar in the English War of 1780 and in the French invasion in 1794. The Netherlands Institute for Military History has a comparable painting of van Carnbee with identical dimensions, attributed to August Christian Hauck (1742-1801) and dated 1766. Left of van Carnbee two books are depicted: 'Scheepsbestierder' and 'Zee tactick' by Byland.
