Naval Battle, 1630
A companion painting to 'Naval Battle, 1582', the ship is again flying the banner of the Order of St John, but this time depicting a scene from May 1630. There are two ships in the background, but it is difficult to tell if they are part of the Order's fleet or perhaps the enemy.
