"Het Gezigt van de Roer Koekraal benevens de berge Sallak en Pangarangoe int verschiet, af te zien van het Speelhuijs uijt de kleijne tuijn op Buijten Zorg" is a 1771 drawing by Johannes Rach depicting a landscape scene. The artwork showcases a panoramic view of a rural area with distant mountains. The Dutch title translates to "View of the Koekraal River, including the mountains Salak and Pangrango in the distance, as seen from the playhouse in the small garden at Buijtenzorg." This drawing provides a glimpse into the 18th-century Dutch colonial landscape in Java, showcasing the natural beauty and human activity of the region. The work's delicate lines and subtle shading enhance the sense of depth and atmospheric perspective, making it a notable example of Dutch landscape art.
