Study for "The Surrender of the Dutch Admiral De Winter to Admiral Duncan, October 11, 1797": Three Figures Raising the Colors

The image depicts a sketch of three men raising a flag or colors. The men are drawn in pencil on a grid-patterned paper. Two men are standing with their arms raised above their heads, holding what appears to be a flag or colors. A third man is to the right, leaning on what appears to be a railing or wall. The man on the left wears a long coat and breeches, while the central figure appears to be barefoot and wearing a short tunic. The background of the sketch is a light blue-gray color with a grid pattern of thin red lines.
