Rose Street, Bo-Kaap, was painted in 1939, a year after the artist returned from studying art in England and travelling in Europe. His paintings from this period have a distinctive luminosity in terms of light with a very fresh palette. Another vibrant example from this period titled Wale Street, Bo-Kaap, was sold by Strauss & Co for R910 400, (26-28 July 2020, lot 455).
