Abstract:
Photograph depicting a corner cupboard with "kasstel" (porcelain pots on stands) from Groot Constantia. It is flat fronted, and has fielded door panels, a shaped apron, canted corners and a gabled pediment. The photograph was probably taken for prof. Geoffrey Pearse's book "Eighteenth Century Architecture in South Africa", but never included. See also p. 338 of "Cape Antique Furniture: a comprehensive pictorial guide to Cape furniture" by Michael Baraitser and Anton Oberholzer.
