Piet Heyn #2

The second volume of John Heijink's Piet Heyn series brings the Dutch Golden Age to vivid life, with its subtitle De Zilvervloot promising high-seas adventure on an epic scale. The cover delivers immediately: a portrait of the determined, bearded Piet Heyn commands the foreground while behind him a chaotic naval battle unfolds — tall ships under full sail, cannons firing, a vessel engulfed in flames, and soldiers clashing in the churning water below a Dutch tricolor flag. Heijink's detailed linework captures both the grandeur and the raw chaos of seventeenth-century maritime warfare with genuine confidence.
