Summary

[edit]
Author
Bastiaan Stoopendael; after Willem Schellinks
Description
English: The Dutch in the Medway, 1667

A bird's eye view of the attack, taken from above Sheerness and drawn on vellum by the engraver Stoopendael. It is possible that this work is based on a drawing by Schellinks in preparation for the engraving, which Stoopendael published in 1701. Willem Schellinks, a landscape and genre painter, visited England during the Second Dutch war and is sometimes suspected of being an agent for the Dutch.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.
