I do have a copy of the Van de Velde drawing of the Gorinchem (Gorcum)
I had not previously noticed, but I do have a copy of the Van de Velde drawing of the Gorinchem (also known as the Gorcum). The picture is facing page 138 in the book by Dr. Johanna K. Oudendijk, Johan de Witt en de Zeemacht (1944). I don't feel able to post such things, due to the rights issues. I will only post most drawings that are done "after" such pictures. The problem usually is that what I can do is not up to the original, but what can we do?
