Nederlands: Het vlaggeschip de 'San Martin' van admiraal Medina Sidonia wordt voor de kust van Dover van bakboord aangevallen door de Engelse 'Rainbow' en van stuurboord door de Nederlandse 'Gouden Leeuw', Dover, 8 augustus 1588. See https://rkd.nl/en/explore/images/8595 (former) title: Slag bij Cadix and description: Tijdens de Slag bij Cadiz verenigden de Hollanders en Engelsen hun krachten in hun strijd tegen de Spanjaarden. Hier wordt de Hollandse viermaster Neptunes van admiraal Johan van Duivenvoorde gesteund door de Engelse Ark Royal in een aanval op de Spaanse San Felipe. In werkelijkheid nam het Engelse schip geen deel aan de slag. Aert Anthonisz gaf het vaartuig weer omdat het zo'n belangrijk symbool was voor de Engelse zeemacht. |
