專家說明

Dr. Pieter van der Merwe has suggested that this drawing could be a compositional demonstration drawing showing various craft at different points of sailing. He also pointed out that the three boats on the left appear to be sprit-rigged and probably kaags (small Dutch cargo/passage boats). Two drawings of the same year, similarly inscribed, are in the National Maritime Museum (M.S. Robinson, Van de Velde Drawings [...], Cambridge, 1974, II, nos. 1429 and 1430, ill.).

We are very grateful to Dr. Pieter van der Merwe for his assistance in cataloguing this drawing and the following lot.
