The Battle of Terheide — Storia e analisi

Per commemorare il comandante navale olandese Maerten Harpertsz Tromp, la sua famiglia commissionò una serie di dipinti a penna delle battaglie più famose di Tromp a Willem van de Velde. L'artista utilizzò penna e inchiostro su tela per queste opere, che somigliano a incisioni meticolose e accurate. Van de Velde assistette alla Battaglia di Terheide nel 1653.

Utilizzò i bozzetti che produsse a bordo come studi per questo dipinto a penna.
