Nelson Mandela ‘Day Off Preliminary Sketch’ by Marc Alexander, pencil on paper, 17cm by 14.5cm, (2013). This portrait was finished a few months before Nelson Mandela passed away. It depicts him at ease and in high spirits, perhaps after a Sunday afternoon concert. His legacy and the impact he made on the world will never die. A final word by Mandela, “For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.”
