Portrait of the 'Monck'
This ship portrait is perceived from the port quarter. The drawing has been inscribed in the lower left-hand corner with the ship’s name, ‘de Monck’.
The drawing has not been rubbed on the back, but is probably based on an offset. There are a few untidy corrections of the ship’s ports along the side. Additionally, there is a faulty lengthening at the bow which has been made in order to include the correct number of ports on the ship.
