Lucas T. SITHOLE in 1978
"... there are numerous collectors in Europe and America, but the preponderance of pieces have been bought by South Africans. Even making allowances for whatever degree art in South Africa is associated with patronizing, the evidence surely proves the appreciative recognition that collectors in that country can provide for the support of major artists, no matter their colour." - (John Povey, African Arts UCLA, Aug. 1980)
The sculptures on this and the other six pages represent but a few of the almost 800 major sculptures recorded which the artist produced in his lifetime.
