this has something of a children's technique of covering a paper with wax crayons from light to dark and then scraping it carefully off. i liked doing those. and i like this one very much as well.

Those are devious Dutch silk merchants screwing an Indian. I'll leave it up to you how literally you want to take that

judging by the turmoil, i guess i prefer quite literally.

I guess those Dutch drunks were indeed very well capable of causing some turmoil every now and then. Still, you might have one reservation: in Malaysia the call proboscis monkeys "Hollanders" because of their fat bellies and ugly faces

i don't think they are ugly and i guess the similaritiy rather refers to their slightly sunburnt aspect which was probably what dutch people looked like under a blazing sun. apart from their tradesmen faces they also look slightly drunk to me.

It's actually quite funny if you try to imagine what came rolling off those wooden ships, but maybe you have to be Dutch to visualize that. Let's just say that it wasn't exactly the cream of the nation..
