A charming mid-century architectural study rendered in watercolour and pen on paper, depicting a street scene in the historic suburb of Doornfontein. The composition captures the character of early urban South African vernacular architecture with delicate linework and soft earth tones, featuring gabled cottages, tall brick chimneys, leafy foliage, and a solitary figure carrying a load on her head alongside a street post. Titled "Doornfontein" to the lower left and signed by the artist to the lower right, the work is presented in a wide neutral mat within an antiqued silver-gilt molded frame.
Dimensions:
62.5 cm L x 38 cm H (framed)
Condition:
The artwork and mount appear well-preserved with no noticeable tears or fading, and the frame shows minor intentional distress and light edge wear consistent with age.
