How it works

Register

  • In Afrikaans; published more than thirty years ago, this remains the most authoritative work on one of South Africa's foremost painters; copies in such good condition are seldom seen
  • Contributors: the Editor and O J O Ferreira, Estelle E Pretorius, Marita Bailey-Pierneef (the artist's daughter), Gre van der Walt-Braakma, Wynand en Eleanore Smit, and Marie van Heerden 

Dustjacket illustrated by one of the artist's colour landscapes, brown cloth-boards gilt to spine, plain endpapers and 263 pp of prelims, text and captions profusely illustrated in colour with the paintings of J H Pierneef, whose stylised clouds and trees were perhaps best represented in his series of 32 large colour canvases of South African landscapes in the concourse of the old Johannesburg railway station
