A starboard bow view of a kaag with her mainsail loosed and the sprit squared in the slings lying at the end of a quay. In the foreground alongside the quay, a bezan-rigged weyschuit with her mainsail hoisted. In the left background, a ship becalmed with sails loosed, firing a salute as a barge pulls away.

This is a pencil and wash drawing by the Elder, with the initials ‘W V V’ in brown ink.
