346 WILLIAM VANDER VELDE.
95. A Storm, with a man of war beating through a rolling
sea.
Collection of Flart Davies, Esq. . 1814.140 gs.

96. A Sea View, represented under the appearance of squally
weather. Various vessels, disposed in the most picturesque
manner, are sailing on different tacks, and strikingly evince by
their positions the force of the gale and the rolling of the
ocean. Dark masses of clouds obscure the sky, and, casting their
shadows over the wide expanse of sea, contribute to the sublime
effect of the scene.
Collection of Hart Davies, Esq. . 1814.190 gs.

97. The Embarkation of King William III. before the
Port of Helveotsluis, taken at the moment of the king’s quitting
his yacht to enter a barge which is to conduct him on board
an English ship. The composition consists of about thirty
boats, yachts, and sloops, filled with figures.

yacht is a little boat with two sailors in it, and a group of
fishing vessels lie on the left. A clear and silvery-toned
