Portrait of a Dutch two-decker

A Dutch two-decker viewed from the port beam, with twelve guns on the gun deck, nine on the upper deck and four on the quarterdeck. On the tafferel are two dolphins whose tails support a coat-of-arms. This drawing has been traced from another. On the back is a rough drawing in black chalk and wash of a landscape with trees and a distant view of buildings in a valley.

This is an unsigned pencil drawing by the Elder
