They were in South Africa in 1847.Sold Strauss & Co, Cape Town, 16 March 2015, Lot 388(10) The mystery surrounding the identity of the artist J.W. intrigued scholars, librarians and collectors for many years. In his book, Pictorial Africana, Gordon-Brown (1975) details the different paths of inquiry over the years, as well as the dead ends and finally, an unexpected discovery. A fascinating clue was a reference in the Cape Town Mail of 4 October 1851, which refuted the claim by the publisher's of "Sketches of Some of the Various Classes and Tribes Inhabiting the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope" (offered as part of this lot) that the lithographs in the book were based on watercolours by a gentleman resident in the Cape for many years. The editor called the book a "curious literary fabrication" and that the actual artist was "a colonial amateur now in Government service who was formerly accustomed to send his sketches to booksellers for sale". According to the paper the artist was "not a little astonished at the use which some unscrupulous purchaser has made of his productions" (AN&N, 1972). However, the elusive J.W. was not identified in the article. The major breakthrough occurred when a London lawyer showed Gordon-Brown a folder of watercolours in 1972. The watercolours were signed with the familiar J.W., but all indications, from the red wax to the provenance, were that the folder was the original wrapping used when the watercolours were purchased. And on the wrapping was written "A Collection of characteristic 24 sketches by J. White, Esq., Cape of Good Hope?.REFERENCESAfricana Notes and News.
