As a young student visiting Bulawayo, I was invited to tea at the Baron home, where I had the privilege of meeting Marshall. He showed me his beautiful paintings and I was especially moved by a landscape of golden corn illuminated by moonlight. I don’t know where that artwork is today, but its beauty and power live on in my memory, as do the recollections of my brief encounter with a remarkable human being. Marshall shared his ideas generously and his intellect, artistry and sincerity made a profound impression on me.
