The Cape Artist, James Thackwray (1919-1994) has often been compared to his contemporaries and friends such as Alexander Rose-Innes, Maurice von Essche, Professor Edward Roworth, and Professor Alfred Krenz. However, he never achieved the recognition which many feel he deserved, mainly due to his quiet unassuming manner and his failure to conform to the norms of the society in which he was to paint. The subject of his paintings re?ect the forced division of the peoples of his country, one which was not a popular subject amongst the artistic intelligentsia of the times. James Thackwray
