Pieter Willem Frederick Wenning (South African 1873-1921) MALAY QUARTER, LION'S HEAD signed oil on canvas Scholtz, J. du P. DC Boonzaier and Pieter Wenning: Verslag van n’ vriendskap. Tafelberg, 1973, illustrated on page 105, number 40 PROVENANCECollection of Professor J. Smith, Stellenbosch/Johannesburg 38,5 by 28cm The dynamic streets of the Cape Malay Quarter have coloured the canvases of some of South Africa’s greatest artists in pinks, greens and yellows. The colourful energy and atmosphere has become a source of inspiration for many. The first inhabitants of the area arrived in the late 17th Century when the Dutch East Company deported them as slaves and political prisoners. The Cape Malay Quarter became increasingly populated between 1790 and 1840, as this unique area’s character started to develop. With the artisanal building skills of the people from the area, mixed with Dutch architectural influences, the Cape Malay Quarter became a melting pot of cultures and histories that draws in and fascinates artists.The Cape Malay Quarter offers a fusion of Western and Eastern cultures and has, to this day, kept its old-world character, providing the largest concentration of pre-1840 buildings to be found anywhere in South Africa. Characterised by the colourful adjoining houses that line the slopes of Signal Hill, the area boasts rows and rows of terraced roofs and stoeps. These repetitive forms and rectangular facades are juxtaposed with domed mosques. These religious symbols represent not only community, but present a diversity of form that prevents monotony. At every turn, there is a new and interesting composition, allowing the artist to essentially stay in one spot, yet fully capture the essence of the area.Nita Spilhaus (Lot 558), Pieter Wenning (Lots 557 and 559) and Gregoire Boonzaier (Lots 432, 434, 490 and 494) are all known for their fascination with the Cape Malay Quarter, and have provided us with some well-resolved examples on this sale. These artists manage to capture the area in a sensitive yet honest way, contributing to our understanding of the Malay Quarter as a whole. These artists are able to represent the energetic atmosphere in the area, as they use figures and compositional elements to create a sense of movement and energy. These artists, particularly those working in oil, manage to create a brightness that could only be found under the African sun. The minimal use of white, rather being replaced by tones of yellow, creates a warm, velvety glow that produces the feeling of sun-bathed buildings and captures the shifting personality of the area for posterity. - A.C.Alexander, F.L. 1940.
