In 't Jaar 1351 c. 1789 - 1810

This anonymous drawing, "In 't Jaar 1351," depicts a sea battle, likely from the 18th century. The ships are rendered in a detailed and realistic style, with the artist focusing on the sails, rigging, and cannon smoke. The scene is set against a cloudy sky, adding to the sense of drama and tension. The drawing's small size suggests it may have been a preliminary sketch for a larger work, or a personal study of maritime warfare. The drawing, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the maritime history of the Netherlands.
