signed and dated 1990oil and oil pastel on canvas 59,5 by 49,5cm; 78 by 68 by 6cm including framingPROVENANCEGregoire Boonzaier estate, thence by descent?Gregoire built his beloved Geelhuis in 1969 and over the years, the house became a recognised landmark in Vermont. It then became fondly known as ?Gregoire se Geelhuis?. This is the house where he entertained the likes of Jan Rabie, Marjory Wallace and Uys Krige to mention but a few. My fondest childhood memories come from times I spent in Vermont with my grandfather where he would entertain me and allow his inner child to come out and play. We would have water fights in and around the house, cook up a storm in the kitchen, making a huge mess of course, and when pancakes were on the menu, he would flip the pancakes, let them stick to the ceiling and then run around the house in an attempt to catch them before they landed on the floor. We would blow up lightbulbs in the fire drum used for burning waste and when he dropped them into the fire he would shout ?Bombs Away?, and we would then duck for cover and wait for the explosion to happen. If it wasn?t lightbulbs, it was firecrackers we were playing with. Separate to the house was his studio where he spent many an hour painting. I remember how disciplined he was when it came to working. He would treat me and allow me to help print linocuts by hand and he would give me a pallet and let me mix colours, of course under his guidance. He had only one rule for me when he was working, and that was that he had to be able to see me from the studio window which overlooked the garden, ocean and a small bay in front of the house. Sadly, those times had to come to an end but the memories will live on forever in me.?Lucian Boonzaier, grandson of Gregoire Boonzaier

signed and numbered 11/30 in pencil in the margin etching and aquatint in colours on Arches paper122 by 80cm; 153,5 by 113 by 6cm including framingLITERATURER. Krauss et al, A Universal Archive: William Kentridge as Printmaker, (Hayward Publishing, 2012), p.13Kentridge is as confident in his use of an etching needle as he is with a stick of charcoal, and the same characteristic kinetic lines which are unapologetic and confident, are simultaneously delicate in both his drawings and prints. Dutch Iris II (lot 288) demonstrates Kentridge?s mastery of printmaking techniques. The subtle development of dark and light areas within the curling petals of the flower, enhanced by the vibrant application of greens and violets, sits against a deep purple background. The artist?s use of colour and line allows him to create a moody atmosphere and ?at some stage the copper and acid or the acrylic sheet and the engraving tools impose their own scenario, much as characters in a play or film?, David Krut explains. In this way, the flower transcends being a simple object, and instead becomes a character in a dramatic composition. R. Krauss et al, A Universal Archive: William Kentridge as Printmaker, (Hayward Publishing, 2012), p.13
