  • WALL LABEL: Hans Heysen: The Creative Journey, 1992

     

    This is an oil sketch painted by Heysen on location outdoors.  He first made several preparatory drawings in this landscape, two of which are shown in this exhibition.  They are drawn from a slightly different angle and from further away.
