May 1672. The first naval battle of the Third Anglo-Dutch War is taking place off the coast of Southwold Bay in Suffolk💥 A Dutch artist sits sketching the action from a small boat... Little does he know he will later use these sketches to design a monumental tapestry commemorating the battle; not for the Dutch, but for the other side: for the English King.
