Deux Catherine Painting

In 1819, the Ship Deux Catherine arrived in Brazil, carrying the Swiss family Hotz on board. But a great tragedy occurred: Jean Hotz died in the Port of Holland before embarking; his wife Catherine Eckert slipped from the ship and died at sea; his son Jean died a year after his arrival, leaving only the orphan Frédèric Hotz who went to live with his uncle Christian's family and contributed to the founding of the city of Nova Friburgo. Relating to the name of the ship, two women introduce themselves. The face of a Catherine stands out full of vivacity, but the most attentive and observant eyes can perceive amidst the waves, another Catherine that, although lost at sea, is eternalized in the painting.
