A Night Action off Cadiz, by Ivan Berryman, 2022
Skirmishes between frigates were a common occurrence, such as here when the 32-gun HMS Amphion encountered a French opponent off Cadiz in 1806 the latter, to her great cost, straying among the British inshore squadron in the darkness of a moonless night. It is understood that the French vessel managed to escape being taken as a prize, although with much damage to her whales and rigging.

Hans Rostgaard sails during a storm to the Dutch Fleet with a letter from king Frederik III to Admiral Wassenar of Obdam, Oct. 28, 1658 by Christian Mølsted 1924
Hans Rostgaard was bailiff at Elsinore, Denmark. When the area was occupied by Sweden in 1658, he served as liason between the Danish king and a Dutch fleet, sent to reinforce the defences of Copenhagen, then under siege by the Swedes. On the 29th of October the Dutch fleet successfully passed the fortress of Kronborg and then fought a hard battle against a Swedish fleet in the Sound, eventually defeating it and reaching Copenhagen.

The Battle of Lys and Gloire against HMS Cumberland, 21 October 1707. By Louis-Philippe Crepin, 1827.
The scene takes place on 21 October 1707 during the War of the Spanish Succession. That day, a French squadron of twelve ships commanded by Forbin and Duguay-Trouin surprised an important British convoy of one hundred sails. During the battle, Duguay-Trouin's ship, a 72 gun named Lys, attacked the 80 gun British flagship HMS Cumberland, which it captured with the help of the frigate la Gloire, commanded by Captain de la Jaille. It is this action that Louis-Philippe Crepin represents in his work. We can see, on the left, the stern of the Lys, and on the right that of the Cumberland. The two ships are about to fire as Gloire approaches, the figurehead of which can be seen on the left.
The Lys is misrepresented as a three-story ship when it was only a two-story ship. The Cumberland was itself a three-deck ship.
"Man jump from the English ship"
This is Honorat Toscan, a sailor from Duguay-Trouin who was the first to jump on the English ship during an attempted embarkation. Taking advantage of the consternation on board caused by the Lys discharges, he ran to the stern of the ship to get his flag. He will grab it when four Englishmen advance on him with high sabers. The French then threw the flag overboard, then dove into it, overtook it, gained a rowboat the Cumberland had in tow, hoisted the sail and joined a French vessel just beyond. Duguay-Trouin did not fail to report to the court of Versailles the fine action of Honorat Toscan. The English flag was brought to Notre-Dame de Paris to be displayed and Louis XIV awarded the bave French sailor a gold medal.
This medal presented the data of the 'Virtuti nauticae praemia' (reward for maritime courage) and depicted the King at Neptune, seated, trident in had, on the prow of a ship, and holding a medal to a sailor in ancient costume.
