Two English ships before the wind and another in stays

Three ships under fore course, mizzen and topsails. One on the left viewed from abaft the port beam, dead before the wind; another on her starboard quarter. On the right, a third ship viewed from abaft the starboard beam, with her headsails to the mast and main topsail shaking.

This is an unsigned pencil and wash drawing by the Younger. It has been approximately dated by the style and watermark.
