An excellent copy of the scarce first book by this important South African artist, featuring predominantly his historical paintings, some portraits and some of his South African stamp designs. 4to. 242pp. with numerous black and white and a few coloured illustrations. In the original green/grey cloth. An inscribed signed presentation copy with a fine full page original ink drawing of a "boere vrou" on the front free endpaper.

In fine condition and the best copy I have personally seen, although missing the uncommon dustwrapper. Rare in this state and with the original drawing.
