Here, the Dutch fleet is seen lying-by in a fresh breeze. In the centre is a starboard quarter view of the 'Delfland', surrounded by a crowd of boats. To the right is a galjoot with her mainsail brailed up but her topsail set.
This unsigned work is inscribed ?dijto donderach den 27 augustij 1665 en gedeelte vande vloot / soo de leijt en drijft? (The same on Thursday 27 August 1665; a part of the fleet as it lay drifting).
An offset of the same subject is in the NMM?s collection, inscribed on the back in a later hand, ?W vandervelde 1677? (see PAF6774).
