The hand behind it
Adam Willaerts
Adam Willaerts painted the sea and the busy shores around it. His pictures show ships at anchor, harbours, crowded beaches with fish being sold, and naval battles, all rendered with bright colour and lots of lively detail. He was born in London to Flemish parents who soon moved to the Netherlands, and from 1597 he lived in Utrecht. He joined the Utrecht painters’ guild in 1611 and later served as its dean. Among his best known works are The Pilgrims Leaving Delftshaven of 1620 and scenes of Dutch victories over the Spanish fleet, one of which is in the Rijksmuseum. His sons Abraham, Cornelis and Isaac also became painters. Look for the careful drawing of rigging and hulls and the many small figures along the shore, which make his pictures reward close viewing.

Questions
How is the finish priced?
The price you see is the painting at the size you chose, in the finish you chose, and it updates as you change either. Rolled arrives in a protective tube, ready for local framing. Stretched arrives on wooden bars, ready to hang. Framed arrives in its frame, ready to hang. Stretched and framed go up to 60 × 90 cm (24 × 36 in); larger paintings travel rolled.
How long does it take?
Painting begins after you order and takes 3 to 4 weeks, including drying and the photo you approve. Delivery then takes 4 to 10 working days to most countries. More on delivery times.
Will it look exactly like the original?
It is painted by a person, so no. Brushwork varies between copies, which is the difference between a painting and a poster.
What if I do not like it?
Ninety days from delivery, full refund.
