About "Robben Island: Liberty Lighthouse"

This painting is of Historical importance in that it represents the 'beacon of hope' of Robben Island where our beloved retired President Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners where incarcerated. Table Mountain is barely visible under a cloud. This was probably the sight the prisoners gazed upon dreaming of their freedom. I've steered away from the usual tourist image.
