Signage: | In this vibrant harbour composition, three boats float gently on the water—one prominently larger than the others—while modest buildings settle in the background. With bold brushwork and rhythmic colour, Appollis offers not merely a seascape, but a deeply personal act of remembrance. Rooted in the geography and emotion of Kalk Bay, the painting evokes a world of working lives, cultural continuity, and everyday dignity—quietly affirming the very human values upheld by the Court’s constitutional vision. |
