"Eekan Malong, from 'Drawings of Fishes from Malacca', c.1805-18" is a notable illustration that forms part of a collection of natural history drawings originating from early 19th-century Malacca, a region in present-day Malaysia. The artwork is attributed to an anonymous artist who meticulously documented the aquatic life in the region during a period when Malacca was an important trading port and a melting pot of cultural and scientific exchange. The drawing of Eekan Malong is one of the many depictions of indigenous fish species that were of interest to both local and European naturalists at the time.

The illustration is characterized by its detailed rendering and scientific accuracy, reflecting the Enlightenment-era emphasis on observation and classification in the natural sciences. The collection to which it belongs provides valuable insights into the biodiversity of the Malacca region during the early 1800s and serves as a historical record of the marine life that was encountered and studied by naturalists and explorers during the period of European colonial expansion in Southeast Asia.

While the artist remains unknown, the work is significant for its contribution to the documentation of marine species and for its artistic merit. The 'Drawings of Fishes from Malacca' are considered important artifacts within the broader context of colonial art and science, as they represent the intersection of indigenous knowledge and European scientific practices. The Eekan Malong drawing, along with the rest of the collection, is a testament to the rich natural heritage of Malacca and the historical importance of the region as a hub for trade, culture, and scientific inquiry.
