Rach, Johannes

View of the fort at Rembang, seen from the road.

Bottom right a pantjalling, or pencalang -

a medium-sized Javanese trading vessel of the VOC -

readying itself to hoist the sails. The crew are waiting on an approaching sloop, probably coming to bring a VOC official and his wife on board.

To the extreme left a vessel under construction.
