Exhibition history
Notes During the Dutch Revolt against Spain the Dutch and Spanish navies met in battle on the inland lake of Haarlemmermeer on 26 May 1573. This painting was made more than 50 years later. Sailing before the wind from the right are the Spanish ships, identified by the flags with a red cross. Approaching from the left are the ships of the Sea Beggars. Due to their bad equipment they were eventually forced to retreat. This painting was formerly located in the city hall of Haarlem.
