Notes

This small sculpture is a portrait of K. (Koen) W. Roora. "In a telephone interview with Mr Koen Roora in 1983, he mentioned that his father had been a friend of Van Wouw in Doornfontein and that he had posed for this small sculpture in 1926. He also added that three castings had been made from the plaster. There are only three castings of this bust. The Vignali foundry in Pretoria North, on the instructions from the firm Sheppard & Barker, cast them all locally."
