Plot

Like Monet, who was his first inspiration, Moses Tladi was a gardener and an artist. It is not known how he encountered Herbert Read, but in the mid 1920's he found employment in Johannesburg as gardener to Read. Read took Tladi under his wing, and introduced him to the collector and philanthropist Howard Pim. This book tells his story.
