Portrait of a Dutch flute
Depiction of a Dutch flute, viewed from the starboard beam. Nothing is shown forward of the waist. There is a full-length figure on the tafferel and the arms of Amsterdam are depicted on the rail above.
It is part of an offset, rubbed on the back, from a rather crude original. A pencil correction has been made to the waterline and stern. The drawing has been approximately dated by its watermark.
