Presumably this is for maintenance or as part of a drill; at anchor in a quiet estuary there would be no other reason to have guns at the ready.\n\nFor Simon de Vlieger’s contemporaries, such a scene would have undoubtedly evoked reassuring thoughts of national security and the naval power for which Holland was famous. And they would have immediately recognised the national flags and insignia displayed on the frigates. The nearer one has the arms of the Province of Holland on its stern and a Dutch flag at the top of the main mast, and there is a Dutch ensign at the stern of the more distant frigate. The boats at the jetty are service vessels which may be running supplies or people out to the men-of-war.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/simon-de-vlieger-a-view-of-an-estuary\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - A View of an Estuary\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon De Vlieger","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":44294633652337,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (34 7\/8\" x 48\")","offer_id":44294633685105,"sku":null,"price":2678.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (15 1\/4\" x 21\")","offer_id":44294633717873,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (18 5\/8\" x 25 5\/8\")","offer_id":44294633750641,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (22 7\/8\" x 31 1\/2\")","offer_id":44294633783409,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (29 1\/2\" x 40 5\/8\")","offer_id":44294633816177,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (35 3\/8\" x 48 3\/4\")","offer_id":44294633848945,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (41 3\/4\" x 57 1\/2\")","offer_id":44294633881713,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (50 1\/8\" x 69 1\/8\")","offer_id":44294633914481,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/3934\/0401\/files\/AViewofanEstuary_withDutchVesselsataJettyandaDutchMan-of-WaratAnchor.jpg?v=1787542703","url":"https:\/\/mastermuseumreplicas.com\/products\/a-view-of-an-estuary-ngal1616","provider":"Master Museum Replicas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
