Specializing in naval scenes, Van de Velde II depicted both calm seas and violent storms, capturing nearly every type of vessel of his time, whether military or commercial. His highly detailed and precise drawings have proven invaluable for understanding 17th-century shipbuilding.
This painting shows the Dutch fleet stationed at Goeree, at the entrance to the Haringvliet, one of the estuary channels of the River Meuse. The work is signed with his initials —“W V V”— on a piece of driftwood floating in the lower left corner.

Price and Transaction Records
Museum Neoseries, numbered and certified, increase in price by 10% with each unit sold. Always produced on demand, their value lies in the experience of beauty itself. In this way, they are granted an induced revaluation, creating a market in which price is closely linked to demand. Thus, the value of each piece becomes tied to its social acceptance, guiding its commercial development and preventing hasty trivialization.

Framing Suggestions
Most of our editions are printed on paper and designed to travel safely and efficiently. For this reason—and because trusted framers can be found almost anywhere—we recommend framing locally. These guidelines will help you achieve the best result:
Without glass, whenever possible
Many original works are displayed without glass. To preserve the same aesthetic and presence, we recommend doing the same. The result is more natural, glare-free, and visually striking.
Mounting on rigid backing (PVC)
Ask your framer to mount the artwork onto a rigid backing. PVC is lightweight, stable, and helps prevent warping over time. It’s also essential if you choose to frame without glass.
Conservation and materials
Always use acid-free materials
If you use glass, make sure it’s anti-glare and UV-protective
Our recommended alternative: museum-grade acrylic, lighter and safer
Shipping & Packaging
Our art editions are carefully rolled and shipped in custom-made tubes designed to ensure safe transport. We offer three tube sizes—70 cm, 90 cm, and 150 cm in height—all with a 12 cm diameter.

Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza
The first selection of Museum Neoseries, in collaboration with the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza (Madrid), invites us to live with masterpieces from the history of art. Caravaggio, Rubens, Velázquez, Delaunay… recreated with exceptional fidelity in scale, color, texture, and light. The same aesthetic emotion, now closer than ever. Each piece is carefully edited and numbered, with royalties paid to institutions—promoting a new way to experience art: more intimate, more everyday, more alive.
