This drawing shows a man honored by angels. He's in front of a big bowl of food. It's a celebration of a naval victory in 1667. The man is Kornelis de Wit. He was a leader in the Netherlands. This drawing was made to remember his win. It was drawn by someone else, not Kornelis de Wit. The drawing is now in a museum.
