About the Item

A monumental early 20th century landscape by South African artist John Roland Brown (1850–1923), depicting a panoramic view of Cape Town from Signal Hill. Executed with meticulous detail, the painting captures the city’s orderly grid, surrounding mountains, and coastal stretch under a luminous sky. Rich botanical elements in the foreground—including cacti and scrub—are rendered with striking precision. Signed lower right. Presented in a carved frame.
