As a cartoonist I’ve often used the line “Sacred cows make large targets” as a motto. It was a short leap from the motto to the idea of a cow speared by the cartoonist’s pens. The glasses and the tie (and the cynical eyes) evoke the notion of a political sacred cow.

This cow was sold by Stephan Welz in association with Sotheby's auction on Wednesday 29 June 2005 at the Nedbank Head Office, 135 Rivonia Road, Sandton. Proceeds have gone to CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation to aid their plight in "Keeping more than Hope Alive". Please read the Auction press release should you want more information about the auction.
