An integral part of the renowned beauty of South Africa's southwestern Cape are the Cape Dutch houses that date back 200 to 300 years. Most are thatched, gabled and whitewashed; some are flat-roofed, double-storeyed and classically inspired. This historical and photographic record explores 150 old houses, paying tribute to the architects and craftsmen who created them.
