MAN WITH FISH. On auction is this beautiful big oil painting by internationally renowned painter Hargreaves Ntukwana. Ntukwana's work does not often come on the market in this size. There is some minorwand old ater damage to the background paper, but not the painted part. This should not have a big influence on the vale or investment potential.
Hargreaves used the technique of blowing diluted oils onto paper, wiping the excess with cloth and cotton swabs then inking over the colour background when it is dry.
Born at Crown Mines in Johannesburg on 17 June, 1938, he went to school locally - and then disappointed his father, a mine clerk, by rejecting medicine as a career and instead studying fine art and music. He worked as a messenger and a clerk to pay for his tuition in fine art, including a spell at the Artists' Colony in Toledo, Spain where he studied under the master Costa Lidas who died at the age of 100 in 1979.
His first overseas one man exhibition took place in London in 1973 and from there exhibitions were held in Paris, Munich, Frankfurt, Denhaag and Bonn. Ntukwana's work is popular in the United States of America where he has exhibited extensively since his first exhibition there in Boston in 1974.
