| Abstract: |
At fourteen, Hendrik had worked hard to be the East India Company's best messenger boy, hoping that one day the captain of a ship would notice his skills and hire him for a voyage. When he reached a green door with a sign hanging above it that read Antoni Leeuwenhoek, Draper, Hendrik lunged for the silver knocker and clanked it loudly. Hendrik stuffed the sketch into his pocket and sprinted toward the brick building that comprised the office and warehouse of Delft's East India Company. There was nothing Hendrik would rather do than draw Mynheer Leeuwenhoek's wonderful beasts, but he couldn't lose his job. [Extracted from the article] |
