About this artwork
This painting is painted in memory of all the people that lost their lives
On 16 July 1627, in an event known as the Turkish abductions, the islands were captured by a fleet of three ships of Barbary Pirates from Algiers. They stayed there until 19 July under the control of Ottomans and had earlier been raiding the east of Iceland and Murat Reis from Salé in Morocco. The pirates captured 234 people from the islands and took them on a 27-day voyage… to Algiers: Most of them spent the rest of their lives in bondage. One of the captives, Lutheran minister Ólafur Egilsson, managed to return in 1628 and wrote a book about his experience, In 1636. The ransom was paid for 34 of the captives, and most of them returned to Iceland.
