Note : Jopie Fourie was executed in Pretoria Central Prison on 20 December 1914. Van Wouw's depiction of the scene, first cast from 1918, was made using photographs and descriptions from the Reverend CA Neethling (who is standing to the right of the three observing officers). The present lot is one of the five that were cast in 1970. Another edition, along with the original plaster cast, is at the Pretoria Art Museum.
