"Panorama of the Knysna River and the defile through which it flows into the sea" is a panoramic drawing by Robert Jacob Gordon, possibly created between 1778 and 1779. This detailed landscape drawing showcases the beauty of the Knysna River in South Africa. Gordon's work is notable for its precise depiction of the natural features of the region, including the river's winding path, the surrounding mountains, and the islands dotting the water. This artwork is a valuable historical and artistic record of the Knysna region during the 18th century.
