Dutch master Willem Van de Velde (1611-1693) who, like Charles Brooking and Samuel Scott, painted maritime scenery and battleships. He was born to Flemish captain instilled in him a love for the sea. He painted mostly the Dutch fleet, for example Shot from a Cannon or Calm Seas. Later, became the fleet’s official painter. For many years, he lived in Greenwich, where he had his studio, but with the accession of King William and Queen Mary, he had to move to Sackville, where he later died.
