'S-137' - Dawie Fourie

Dimensions: 19 x 50 cm (7.5 x 19.7 inches)

Medium: Acrylics on canvas

Capturing the breathtaking expanse of the southern Kruger, 'S-137' is a masterful original acrylic painting by the contemporary artist Dawie Fourie. This panoramic work depicts the iconic open plains along the S-137 (Duke’s Road), a route legendary among safari-goers for its vast horizons and unparalleled sightings of big cats and plains game. The canvas measures 19 cm (Height) x 50 cm (Width).

The composition is a study in minimalist beauty and immense scale, with the horizon line placed low to allow the sky to dominate the frame. Fourie’s mastery of acrylics on canvas is evident in the subtle colour transitions of the grasslands—moving from lush, vibrant greens in the foreground to the sun-scorched, golden ochres of the distant plains. Along the distant horizon, small, dark silhouettes of hardy shrubs and trees anchor the viewer’s perspective within this sea of grass.

The sky is rendered in a soft, atmospheric blue, punctuated by light, drifting cumulus clouds that cast gentle shadows across the landscape, perfectly capturing the midday heat and still air of the bushveld. This exceptional Dawie Fourie acrylic painting is a premier example of contemporary South African landscape art, ideal for collectors who appreciate the raw, quiet majesty of the Kruger National Park’s most famous open vistas.
