75. A View on the Coast of Schevening, under the effect of
a light breeze and a rippling sea. On the left is seen a Dutch
lighterman, with her main-sail reefed to the mast, a small boat
at her stern, and another on her starboard side with five men
in it: beyond her are a number of vessels receding in succes-
sion into the distance. The opposite side is distinguished by a
line of high sand-hills, on which are several persons; and close
to the margin of the sea is a waggon with four persons in it,
drawn by two horses, towards which a man with a package,
and a boy, are going. A fishing vessel, and three small boats
full of persons, are on the same side, near the shore. This is
a clear and highly-finished picture. Dated 1659-
1ft. 7 in. by 2 ft. 1 in.— C.

76. A Sea View, represented under the appearance of a
breeze, and approaching rain. The nearest object to the
spectator is a small boat with five men in it, beyond which is a
brig carrying three square sails, and still more remote is a
fishing boat under main and jib sails. Two ships of war are
on the opposite side, and others are seen in the distance. This
is an admirable example of the master.

from shore; two row-boats full of passengers are seen on the
left, and a frigate and other vessels are at different distances.
