oil painting of nelson mandela

This painting evolved out of my interest in the early influences of Nelson Mandela's life. Nelson Mandela is on the left wearing an authentic beaded necklace of the Thembu clan out of which he was born. To his right is the image of Chief Jongintaba who was acting regent of the Thembu people a the time that he was guardian and benefactor of the young Nelson Mandela. Jongintaba literally means " One who stares at the mountain ". In the background is an image of a youth participating in stick-fighting which was essential knowledge to have for any rural African boy at the time of Nelson Mandela was growing up. In the background I also added some computer prints, containing some of my research information that I have collected in preparation of this painting.
