'Spring flowers on Signal Hill' - James Yates

Dimensions: 61 x 45 cm (24 x 18 in)

Medium: Oil on canvas

Admire the iconic panorama of the Mother City with this striking original oil painting, titled 'Spring flowers on Signal Hill' by renowned South African artist James Yates. This artwork captures the majestic sweep of Table Mountain viewed from the slopes of Signal Hill.

The vertical canvas measures 61 cm (Height) x 45 cm (Width). The composition is a masterful juxtaposition of foreground colour and background grandeur. The immediate foreground bursts with life, featuring a dense tapestry of wild spring flowers—paints of purple, yellow, and blue create a rich, textured fynbos landscape carpet that dominates the lower half of the piece. This joyful floral display contrasts beautifully with the distant urban environment.

In the mid-ground, the sprawling suburbs of Cape Town are visible, rendered in muted greys and blues, bridging the gap between nature and city life. The background is dominated by the colossal, flat-topped presence of Table Mountain and its buttresses, painted in rich purples and browns that suggest the geological antiquity of the rock. The sky is active and bright, filled with white, sun-lit cumulus clouds. This exceptional James Yates oil painting is a superb example of South African landscape art, highly sought after by collectors of Cape Town art and those celebrating the intersection of urban life and the Cape's unique floral kingdom.
