Portrait of the Akerboom

Viewed from the port quarter. On the tafferel there is a tree between two ports and two windows. On the rail above, Jupiter is riding on an eagle with lions and dolphins. Two shields on the counter, on the port side a lion rampant and on the starboard side crossed anchors for the Admiralty of Amsterdam.

This is an unsigned pencil drawing by the Younger. It is not rubbed on the back and perhaps not an offset but a badly rubbed drawing.
