In 2005 accomplished artist and famed gardener Jocelyn Boyley found joy in writing and producing a book to honour a wonderful life, well-lived, that of her husband Erroll Boyley, an acclaimed South African painter. This edition is limited to 2000 copies and with some still available at R900.00, this is well-worth adding to your Christmas wish-list. We have heard, on good authority that this collectible book is selling at double this price elsewhere!
Between the covers of this beautiful work you will begin a journey with a young boy as he faces adventures and challenges, along a road that winds from Pietermaritzburg through the Valley of a Thousand Hills, to Ramsgate, visits Knysna and lingers in Franschhoek to return to Hilton. Meet the child, the man, the fisherman, the musician and of course the artist.
Colour plates of Errol Boyley's works in Celebration of a Life are thematically set out in the following genres; animals, cattle, cape buildings, cape cottages, human figures, harbour and sea, Highveld and KZN Midlands, horses, rivers, still life, trees and Vlei and marshland.
