“A Seaport at Sunset”, by Claude Lorrain, does not depict a specific seaport. However, it was painted in 1639, which would have been ten years after the siege at Rochelle, and may show the kinds of things you could expect at a French seaport in that time.

“I am inclined to believe, that all those who espouse the doctrine of reconciliation, may be included within the following descriptions: Interested men, who are not to be trusted, weak men who cannot see, prejudiced men who will not see, and a certain set of moderate men who think better of the European world than it deserves; and this last class, by an ill-judged deliberation, will be the cause of more calamities to this Continent than all the other three.”—Thomas Paine (Common Sense)
