In this large-scale watercolour, Mogano captures the ramshackle cottages and makeshift shacks of Alexandra township. A bustling hive of people and smoke-filled chimneys animates the scene, rendered before the area was transformed by hostels and residential flats, offering a vivid record of everyday life in an earlier Alexandra.
