"Study for 'The Surrender of the Dutch Admiral De Winter to Admiral Duncan, October 11, 1797': Two Studies of a Man with a Sail or Flag" is a preparatory work by the renowned American artist John Singleton Copley, who played a significant role in colonial American art before relocating to London. This study is part of Copley's process in creating a larger historical painting that commemorates the pivotal naval engagement during the French Revolutionary Wars, known as the Battle of Camperdown. The battle saw the British fleet, under Admiral Adam Duncan, defeat the Dutch fleet led by Admiral Jan Willem de Winter on October 11, 1797.

Copley, known for his meticulous approach to historical accuracy and detail, often created studies and sketches to perfect the elements within his grander compositions. This particular study focuses on the figure of a man interacting with a sail or flag, capturing the dynamic movement and drama of the naval battle. The work serves as an example of Copley's skill in rendering the human figure and his ability to convey the tension and action of historical events.

The study is significant not only as a window into Copley's artistic process but also as a piece of historical documentation of naval warfare in the late 18th century. It showcases Copley's transition from his earlier American period, characterized by portraits of prominent colonial figures, to his later works in Britain that often depicted grand historical and allegorical scenes.

As a work by a major figure in American and British art history, this study is an important piece for scholars interested in Copley's oeuvre, the genre of history painting, and the cultural representation of naval history. It contributes to the understanding of how artists of the period approached the challenge of visualizing historical moments and the role that preparatory studies played in the creation of large-scale history paintings.
