Dimensions: 69 x 85 cm (27 x 33.5 in)

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Discover the serene beauty of the Cape Winelands in this magnificent original oil painting, titled 'Zevenwacht' by the contemporary South African artist Mike Forrester. This piece captures the historic architecture and tranquil landscape of the Zevenwacht wine estate.

The horizontal canvas measures 69 cm (Height) x 85 cm (Width). The composition is focused on the central Cape Dutch manor house, its crisp white walls and characteristic thatched roof framed by a dense canopy of ancient trees. The house stands proudly behind a reflective farm dam, which mirrors the vibrant blue of the sky and the dark surrounding foliage. The subtle reflections of white light on the water add depth and stillness.

Beyond the trees, the scene opens to reveal rolling hills of vineyards and agricultural fields under a bright, clear sky, contrasting the manicured foreground with the expansive natural setting. Forrester employs a realistic style, beautifully rendering the rich, saturated greens and yellows of the estate's lush environment. This outstanding Mike Forrester oil painting is a premier example of South African rural art and Winelands painting, perfect for collectors of Cape Dutch art who appreciate historic tranquility and verdant landscapes.
