ROBBEN ISLAND | SERIES 1
Mandela reflects, "My Robben Island, I have attempted to colour the island sketches in ways that reflect the positive light in which I view it.
This is what I would like to share with people around the world and, hopefully, also project the idea that even the most fantastic dreams can be achieved if we are prepared to endure life's challenges."

This sketch depicts the view into Nelson Mandela’s prison cell through the open cell door.
The few possessions that prisoners were allowed have been emphasised in colour, as they are symbolic of a link with a reality outside the harsh prison regime.
Their meagre possessions typically included letters and photographs of family and friends – pieces of paper that acquired tremendous emotional value to prisoners
Nelson Mandela was to spend some 17 years of his 27-year imprisonment in this cell on Robben Island. When he was released from prison he became South Africa’s first black president, and went forward to show the country how to unify and forgive.
