| Abstract | |
This dissertation deals with the Dutch pictorial representations of the war between the Iberian crowns and the United Provinces in the Atlantic, during the 17th century. It seeks to understand the elements which compose the battle scenes and portraits of admirals and generals. Therefore, we analyze the path of these pictorial artifacts, beginning with the representations produced by the employees of the West India Company, which were later assembled by engravers and publishers in the United Provinces, and finally their circulation and consumption in the main European cities. Besides, it will be investigated the topics and conventions used in the figuration of the West India Company and its officials and soldiers. Lastly, the research focuses on the pictorial construction of alterity, i. e., the way in which the artists based in the United Provinces represented the Iberian enemies and the Amerindian and African peoples.
