Description: Graphite, pen and brown/grey ink, point of brush in grey, grey and blue wash, 130 x 260 mm. Stains in the upper left corner, a small loss at the upper right. Framing lines in black ink, partly over previous lines in pencil. Watermark: The letters LR. Chain lines: 25 mm. Signature (?) in the lower right corner, in pen and grey ink, WVVJ.

The contours drawn with the brush are somewhat hesitant and heavy, and the sinking ship and the small boat with the oars out have been retouched with hesitant strokes in brown ink. The “signature” is curiously placed halfway outside the drawn area. This is possibly an imitation or a fake. [Magnusson, Dutch Drawings no. 442]
