A ketch at anchor

A near port bow view of a ketch at anchor, with a small rowing boat alongside to port and another vessel sailing by in the middle distance. This unsigned drawing is probably by Willem van de Velde, the Younger, although signs of overdrawing suggest that it may have been retouched by a later hand.
