Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Sieuwert van der Meulen' after own design. Sieuwert van der Meulen (1663-1730) was an 18th-century painter. He was born in Alkmaar, the son of Catharina Oostfries and Claes van der Meulen and became a member of the Alkmaar Guild of St. Luke in 1700 but also worked in Haarlem. He designed and etched prints, for example a series of 16 etchings titled 'Navigiorum Aedificatio', on the history of a ship. This was published by Peter Schenk the Elder in Amsterdam and shows a pictorial documentary of how ships were built, launched, repaired, provisioned, and used in the early 18th century.
