Colours of Africa! No 1 - a photo on Flickriver

I've often referred to the love of, and mastery of the deployment of, bright, 'contrasty' colours that are a visual 'signature' of Southern Africa. This is a capture of a detail from a magnificent sequence of murals that decorate the Auditorium of St Augustine College of South Africa, a highly regarded, non-profit, Catholic University. A group of volunteer Dutch artists contributed significantly to the painting of these murals. Here is the Website link: www.staugustine.ac.za/
