"Gezicht op Stellenbosch, Drakenstein en de Simonsbergen" is a watercolor by Adrianus Johannes Bik, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes and architectural drawings. Created in 1816, the artwork depicts a panoramic view of Stellenbosch, a town in South Africa, nestled between the Drakenstein and Simonsberg mountains. Bik's meticulous attention to detail and realistic depiction of the landscape make this work a valuable historical record of early 19th-century South Africa. The piece is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
