SOUTH AFRICAN PRINTS AND GIFTWAREPIERNEEF PRINTS (follow link for Jewelry, Wildlife and Tribal Prints) All the Pierneef Prints have been sold. We are currently trying to find another publisher so that we can once again offer these wonderful images. In the first decades of the 20th century, the painter Jacob Hendrik Pierneef brought a coolly geometric sensibility to the South African landscape, finding in it a strict but beautiful order.
Pierneef would travel the countryside, sketching extensively for his paintings which would later be completed in his studio.
In 1928 he experimented with abstract modern art and included some "futuristic" works in an exhibition. These were not well accepted and he reverted to his old style of painting.
