Portrait of the 'Vlissingen'?
Portrait of the East Indiaman 'Vlissingen', 50 guns. She may have been built in 1653. She was last mentioned in 1674. She is viewed from the port quarter. On the tafferel, the arms of Zeeland are visible on a round shield, crowned, and supported by two savages holding clubs and sitting astride dolphins.
This is an offset which is not in reverse but is from an accurate and detailed drawing. It is not rubbed on the back. It has been approximately dated by the watermark.
