It is the only surviving painting of a series of fifteen that Netherlandish artist Cornelis Ketel made in England between 1576 and 1578 for the Company. The fourteen lost paintings depicted English and Inuit people involved with Frobisher's three Northwest Passage voyages, as well as the ship Gabriel.
