Description
Nederlands: Belegering van kasteel Batavia in 1619.

J.P. Coen besloot in 1619 dat Jakatra, later Batavia, een geschiktere basis voor de VOC op Java zou zijn dan Bantam en ging ertoe over deze stad in te nemen. De sultan van Mataram, onder wie Jakatra viel, was het hier vanzelfsprekend niet mee eens en verzette zich hevig.

Linksvoor is de door de sultan gevangen genomen Nederlandse commandeur Pieter van den Broecke afgebeeld.

De afbeelding is afkomstig uit het werk 'Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indiën' van François Valentyn.
English: Siege of Batavia castle in 1619.

J.P. Coen decided in 1619 that Jakatra (later Batavia) would be a more suitable base for the VOC on Java than Bantam and set out to capture the city. The sultan of Mataram, under whose influence Jakatra fell, was self-evidently opposed to this and resisted strongly.

In the foreground left is the Dutch commander Pieter van den Broecke, who was taken prisoner by the sultan. The illustration is taken from the work 'Oud en Nieuw Oost-Indien' by Francois Valentyn.
