This watercolor drawing by Cornelis Steiger, created around 1710, depicts the Fort Hammenhiel in Ceylon, viewed from the sea. The fort is prominently displayed on a small island, surrounded by calm, rippling waters. Several ships are depicted sailing towards the island and beyond. The sky is filled with fluffy clouds, adding to the peaceful atmosphere. The drawing showcases the fort's defensive structures and the serene beauty of the surrounding landscape.
