Rare Africana and a fascinating insight into the life and times of South African artist Johannes Meintjes during the period 1951 to 1955.
Johannes Meintjes was a painter that enjoyed tremendous public support for his art since early age and also received international acclaim as an author later on.
The fame he enjoyed as a 21 year old artist is unequalled in the South African history of art.
Meintjes died in 1980 and had established himself as a major South African painter and writer. He had painted more than a thousand canvases, produced dozens of sculptures and exhibited in all South Africa's major galleries.
Apart from numerous articles and smaller literary works, he had published 35 books, amongst them internationally authoritative works on South African history.
The correct spelling of his surname is 'Johannes Meintjes' (and not 'Johannes Meintjies')
Some of Meintjes' books are of historical GLBTQ+ interest as they are considered to be early examples of South African gay writing.
