A Dutch flagship close-hauled

A slight offset of a large ship viewed from close under the lee bow, close-hauled on the starboard tack in the breeze under fore course, mizzen and topsails, with the topgallant yards crossed. There is a flag at the fore.

This is an unsigned faint offset by the Younger, broadly drawn and of doubtful period. The other drawings on this paper are mostly circa 1675.
