Notas : This painting was originally owned by Alwyn and Babsie (née Engela Malherbe) van Heerden circa 1950 until Babsie's death in April 2019. Thereafter, their eldest daughter inherited the painting. Alwyn and Babsie were married in 1941 and lived on Burnett Street in Pretoria. Babsie was a lecturer in Social Work at the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg and Alwyn worked at Old Mutual. Babsie and Alwyn lived in Pretoria until 1952. The present lot was presented to Babsie and Alwyn by Henk Pierneef during this period. Babsie and Alwyn lived on the farm Akkerdraai in the Stellenbosch district until they died in 2005 and 2019. During this time Marita Pierneef made contact with the owners and this artwork was exhibited for one of the exhibitions that Marita held in her house in Stellenbosch.
