A ship with the flags of the seven provinces of the Dutch Republic and of the city of Delft is sailing on the water. It carries a lion, with two crowned herrings in his front paw. The inscription ‘’T Welvaere Vande Groote Vissereij’ (To the Prosperity of the Great Fishery) is a toast to successful catches.
