Description: | Possibly a portrait of the ?Greyhound?, sixth rate, 16 guns. She was built in 1672 and sold in 1698.
She is viewed from the port quarter. Nine wreathed ports are on a broadside. There is a badge with a single light on the quarter. A seated figure of Britannia with angels on either side is on the tafferel.
An accurate drawing though with many corrections; probably based on an offset.
Box Title: Ingram. Van de Velde 1672-1675. G 1055-1103.
