Key on separate sheet ('De Onderneming Op Chattam' - text and pictures 245 x 170). The artist's name is also spelt Langendijk. The print is a late-18th-century Dutch historical commemoration of the Medway Raid of 1667 and the capture of the 'Royal Charles', which is the ship on the left with that name on the stern. Though the composition has been reversed it appears to be based on Benjamin West's 'Battle of La Hogue, 1692' of which BHC0339 is the oil copy made by George Chambers in about 1836 for the Naval Gallery at Greenwich Hospital. West's canvas - which was at that time in the collection of the Marquess of Westminster and is now in the National Gallery of Art in Washington - is dated c. 1778. It was first engraved by William Woollett and the print published in October 1781. [PvdM 3/19]
