Description
These cottages are painted from memory after visiting a small fishing village near Cape Aghullas, 20 years ago.
The village is called Arniston after a ship that sank off the "Cape of Storms" in 1815. The real name of the town is Waenhuiskranz.
The remains of the ship were located in January 1982 and declared a National Monument.
These cottages were built by the local fishermen, but have either been demolished or renovated and are no longer the picturesque and charming subjects of painters.
This type of cottage is the quintessential local beach building, and have been the inspiration of generations of painters..
