A Dutch fleet at anchor
This distant panoramic view shows the fleet at anchor in the various squadrons: the rear squadron is in the right half of the drawing, with the centre squadron and van running into the distance in the left half.
This is an unsigned pencil and wash drawing by the Younger which has been approximately dated by the subject and style.
The drawing is inscribed on the reverse ‘Panton Betew’s Sale 1799’, which suggests that it was in an English collection in the 18th century.
