Maud Sumner is one of South Africa's most distinguished painters and has achieved a high reputation outside her own country, especially in France and England. The fact that Maud Sumner has been an artist and a citizen of three countries largely accounts for the power, subtlety and originality of her work, both as a watercolourist and as an oil painter.  Throughout this book, the development of her work is discussed against a background of Johannesburg, Oxford and Paris, and in relation to her varied and interesting life, her notable friendships with distinguished artists, and religious convictions.
