Nelson Mandela

This week Year 6 studied the life and artwork of Nelson Mandela. As well as being a great leader and president of South Africa, Nelson Mandela was a talented artist. Much of his artwork was during his 27 years in prison on Robben Island. Mandela was arrested for his fight against apartheid.




Below are some studies we made of Mandela's artwork.




We looked at the famous hand print of Nelson Mandela. Few have left such an imprint on the international stage as Nelson Mandela. It is therefore fitting that the extraordinary imprint of his right hand should so closely resemble the shape of the continent of Africa.
