EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures Benjamin West's iconic oil painting, "The Battle of La Hogue" housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. Painted in neoclassical style, this masterpiece depicts a pivotal moment during the Nine Years' War when Britain and the Protestant Dutch clashed with the French navy near La Hogue, France. In this single idealized scene, Vice Admiral George Rooke stands triumphantly on a boat with his sword raised high, symbolizing victory over Louis XIV's attempt to restore Catholic James II to the English throne. The centerpiece showcases France's defeated flagship, Royal Sun, beached and engulfed in flames. West skillfully employs artistic license to create a panoramic drama filled with action and emotion. The painting portrays an intense battle at sea as ships engage one another amidst billowing smoke and crashing waves. Swords clash and guns fire while sailors fight valiantly for their respective nations.
