The book explores the developments in South African art and recalls the early activity in each of the main centres. It examines various classes of painting, graphic and sculptural expression and lists the leading exponents in those fields. It gives attention also to a wide range of related topics such as Art Periodicals, Collections, Fame and Promise, Forgeries, National Competitions, Reproductions, Rock Art, etc.'
