Charles Francis Annesley Voysey (1857-1941)'HERALDIC'a wallpaper design, signed, inscribed and dated ‘CFA Voysey Archt 23 York Place W Sept 20 1904 / Copyright for paper belongs to Essex and Co.’watercolour and pencil69 x 56cmFor an identical wallpaper design in a different colourway, see the V&A Museum No. E.264-1913. The wallpaper design was apparently given to Edmund Hunter (1866-1937), by CFA Voysey. Hunter founded the St Edmundsbury Silk Weaving Works, in Haslemere in the late 1890's and moved to Letchworth Garden City in 1908. The firm's textiles were widely viewed nationally and internationally, and in 1904, at the St Louis International Exhibition, the company won a silver medal for decorative textiles. Commissions came from the royal chapels, Westminster Abbey and St Paul's, as well as the lavish productions of Herbert Beerbohm Tree.It is possible that Hunter and Voysey met whilst living in Bedford Park or at Letchworth. Voysey worked with Essex and Co. from 1893 and was known to have executed several hundred designs. In the 'Decorators and Painters Magazine' 1902-3, Vol. 1, there is reference to Voysey's 'Heraldic' design. 'Perhaps the most distinguishing new characteristics of Messrs Essex & Co.'s goods this year is the number of designs in which the motive is connected with the forthcoming coronation. The Heraldic design is a sample of the important development - It is produced in several colourings, one of them quite startling in its effects. The ground is in vermillion, the background of the shield is black, the ground of the paper is in green, and the stripes are in vivid blue'.

signed oil on board 33 by 56,5cm (including frame) In this mixed media work the artist evokes a humble corrugated iron shelter and white-washed lean-to with a series of golden-yellow rounded forms, reminiscent of pumpkins ripening on a roof. He has cleverly extended the canvas onto the surrounding striations of the picture frame in order to depict smoke rising from the whitewashed chimney, creating in his own distinct manner an iconic rural Cape scene. Stanley Pinker was an artist and recipient of the Molteno Medal for painting. His contribution to our cultural landscape is immeasurable and he is celebrated as belonging to a continuum of great artists from Cezanne to Matisse He worked at Michaelis School of Fine Art as a lecturer for many years until 1986 when he retired. In 2012, at the age of 87, he passed away after a lifetime in art. ?He was one of the few SA painters who understood and continued to explore the implications of Cubism and painterly, textural surface-materiality with intelligence and wit. Ingenious in his magpie eclecticism, he drew inspiration from the moderns from Cezanne to Braque to Matisse to Klee. Infusing his work with something of the humour of pop art, he focused on subjects and an ironic content particularly reflective of South(ern) Africa?s beautiful landscapes; its society and its ills, creating a unique vision and a leaving us a great artistic legacy. No SA art museum can ever have enough of his work.? Hayden Proud, curator of historical paintings at Iziko SA National Gallery, was taught by Pinker. - Carol Kaufmann
