Notes

In his still-life paintings Boonzaier has revealed another aspect of his artistic personality. They tend to display the influence of Braque, but they are not as mannered as most of his landscapes. It is in this field of his painting that he has embarked most frequently upon experiment; but invariably he retreats again at a point where creative dynamism might have carried him through to new developments.
