Date: 1786. Oil on canvas. 1117.6 x 1828.8 mm. National Maritime Museum, London, Greenwich Hospital Collection. The French were seeking to take control of the British-held port of Negapatam on the eastern coast of India. There was no clear result but the British managed to force a French retreat. The action was fought with the two opposing fleets lined up in their squadrons firing at each other. This line formation dominated sea warfare in the 18th century." |
