The Battle of the Slaak, Night of 12-13 September
A stormy grey sky hangs over a choppy harbour where many sailing vessels with billowing white sails and red pennants crowd the water. In the foreground, small boats filled with figures move among the ships under a hazy horizon, suggesting a naval engagement in dim light.
