About this Item
signed and dated 99; inscribed with the title and dated 2000 on a João Ferreira Gallery label adhered to the reverse
Notes
Holy Fragments III forms part of a body of work entitled ‘Indus’ that was inspired by the artist’s visit to India. ‘The highly prolific Verster delights as much in the rich and sensuous textures of India as in the colours and qualities of his painting. Verster maintains that his visits to India have profoundly changed the way he sees.’¹
