The Tomb of Michiel de Ruyter in the Nieuwe Kerk, Amsterdam, 1683

Emanuel de Witte, 1617-1692

Oil on canvas

Visitors are admiring Admiral de Ruyter's imposing tomb monument.
It occupies the place where the main altar once stood when the
Nieuwe Kerk was still a Catholic church. The monumental marble tomb
is a tribute to the naval hero, who died in 1676 off the coast of
Sicily at the age of 69. It was designed by the sculptor
Rombout Verhulst. De Ruyter's son commissioned this painting.
