Image was initially illustrated in the photographer's Platteland, 1994, which was born of the profound irony that despite the political privilege apartheid had bestowed on whites, in the physical heart of the land there is inescapable testimony to the failure of the regime even to secure the well-being of the privileged minority. Black and white photo of a man standing outside with a cane; on reverse signed, dated with edition 3/5.
