About this work
A broad panoramic view shows two lines of sailing ships engaged in battle on a calm sea, with clouds of gun smoke drifting across the water. Rows of ships with furled and full white sails extend into the distance under a pale, hazy sky. This print by William Daniell, dated 1804, depicts the action between East Indiamen under Commodore Nathaniel Dance and a French squadron under Rear Admiral Comte de Linois off Pulo Aor.
