De Ruyter's Voyage to Bergen, autumn 1665. A council-of-war in the Dutch fleet
A distant view showing the fleet lying-by in a light air. On the left, the commander-in-chief surrounded by a large number of boats. On the right, somewhat nearer, a private ship viewed from before the port beam.
This is a pencil and wash drawing by the Elder, with a false signature ‘W.V.VJ.’ It is a slight drawing probably based on an offset.
