Portrait of an English fourth-rate, about 42 guns, c.1675 (pencil, wash)
7341981 Portrait of an English fourth-rate, about 42 guns, c.1675 (pencil, wash) by Velde, Willem van de, the Elder (1611-93); 26.1x42.7 cm; National Maritime Museum, London, UK; (add.info.: Creator: Willem van de Velde, the Elder
A fourth-rate viewed from before the starboard beam. The lower-masts, bowsprits and spritsail topmast are shown. Like PAH3931, this may be one of the 42-gun fourth-rates, and the incomplete upper deck and the triple turreted quarter gallery make it probable that she is one of the early ships, Assurance or Constant Warwick'. Although armed like the latter, the beakhead bulkhead is different, and this ship and not PAH3931 may be the Assurance'.
Accurately but rather untidily drawn and probably not based on an offset. It is very approximately dated by the style.); © National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of a powerful English fourth-rate ship from the 17th century, showcasing its intricate details and majestic presence on the open sea. Created by Willem van de Velde, the Elder, this pencil and wash drawing offers a glimpse into maritime history with its accurate depiction of a vessel armed with about 42 guns.
The ship is viewed from before the starboard beam, highlighting its lower-masts, bowsprits, and spritsail topmast in meticulous detail. The incomplete upper deck and triple turreted quarter gallery suggest that this may be one of the early ships such as 'Assurance' or 'Constant Warwick'. The artist's skillful hand brings to life the unique features of each element of the ship, from its beakhead bulkhead to its overall structure.
Despite some untidiness in execution, this artwork exudes authenticity and historical significance. It serves as a reminder of Britain's naval prowess during this era and showcases the artistry of Flemish artist Willem van de Velde. This print is not just a visual masterpiece but also a window into an important chapter in European maritime history.
