Portrait of Johan Arnold Zoutman

Rijksmuseum
Amsterdam, Netherlands

The undecided naval Battle of Dogger Bank in the North Sea against the British (1781) was celebrated as a victory in the Dutch Republic. Under the command of Vice-Admiral Zoutman, the Dutch fleet had finally regained its militancy. Zoutman is portrayed with the decorations he received in gratitude from Stadtholder William V: a gold sword, a Dogger Bank medallion on a ribbon and a medal of honour.
