South African Graphic Art and its Techniques - F.L. AlexanderSouth African Graphic Art and its Techniques by F L Alexander is not a history of the graphic arts in South Africa because the nineteenth century artists at the Cape left no mark on those of the twentieth century. These later artists are only successors in time, but not their followers. South African Graphic Art and its Techniques, therefore, does not pretend to be such a history. |
