This anonymous 1628 print depicts the Dutch fleet anchored off the coast of Dunkirk, a strategic port city on the English Channel. The detailed map-like composition showcases the ships' positioning within the harbor, complete with descriptive labels in Dutch, making it a valuable historical document. The print's aesthetic is evocative of 17th century Dutch cartography and seafaring themes. The artwork is a visual record of a significant moment in Dutch maritime history, with a focus on the strategic positioning of the Dutch fleet.
