Description
English: The galleon Friderich was named after king Frederick III of Denmark, and it was delivered to the Danish Navy in 1649. It was built at Neustadt under the supervision of admiral Christopher Lindenow. The admiral commissioned this painting, which was placed at the family's castle at Gavnø, where it still is. Because of its ornaments - referring to the Order of the Elephant - it was also called Den hvide Elefant (The White Elephant). This copy has been cropped, see the "other versions" for the full painting.
Dansk: Orlogsskibet Friderich var opkaldt efter Frederik III og indgik i den danske flåde i 1649. Det blev bygget i Neustadt under opsyn af admiral Christopher Lindenow. Admiralen fik udført dette billede, der blev ophængt på familiens slot Gavnø, hvor det stadig hænger. På grund af sin udsmykning - der refererer til Elefantordenen - blev skibet også omtalt som Den hvide Elefant. Denne gengivelse er beskåret i begge sider sider.
