Created in 1633, the work showcases Willaerts' skill in capturing the chaos of a sea fight, with a multitude of ships and figures meticulously rendered in delicate lines. While the specific battle is unknown, the drawing provides a glimpse into the Dutch Golden Age, a period of significant maritime power and prosperity. The drawing is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
