'View from Robben Island' - James Yates

Dimensions: 51 x 76 cm (20 x 30 in)

Medium: Oil on canvas

Capture a piece of Cape Town's profound history and iconic beauty! This striking original oil painting, titled 'View from Robben Island' by the renowned South African artist James Yates, presents the famous, evocative view of Table Mountain as seen from the shores of Robben Island.

The generous canvas measures 51 cm (Height) x 76 cm (Width). The painting is a powerful study in contrast: the beautiful, enduring shape of Table Mountain stands proudly against the clear, blue sky, while the weathered hull of the historic wreck of the Edinburgh rests in the foreground. The rough, deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean connects these two famous landmarks. The warm, golden light hitting the face of the mountain gives the scene an uplifting quality, symbolising hope and resilience.

This is a beautiful, evocative, and historically rich artwork that celebrates the enduring spirit of Cape Town and its unmistakable natural icons. This meaningful James Yates oil painting is a premier example of South African landscape art, highly valued as a collector's item and a significant piece of South African history interpreted through art.
