The Lebombo range of mountains stretches from the Kruger right down into northern Zululand and the lion play and groom themselves in the heat like overgrown pussycats. Giraffe graze the succulent topmost stems of the acacia trees and the antediluvian relic; the white rhinoceros trots prudently into the bush. Night drives at Singita are standard. This is when secret Africa reveals itself. The prolific Africa artist, Keith Joubert, is represented here. Steeped in Africa; his soul is African. His art is intimate. In his landscapes the sun rises inside you; the baobab tree shelters you from the heat, the hyena looks back over his shoulder only at you! Yet another gift from Africa!
