LONG WALK TO FREEDOM

-

may 22 In 2004, Nelson Mandela painted six separate images of his hands and arms breaking free from manacles to celebrate liberty after 27 years in prison. The images, titled Freedom, were reproduced as lithograph­s in a limited edition of 30 sets, and 30 leading South African and internatio­nal artists were invited to add their original work to the prints. The six painted by highly rated Singaporea­n artist Tan Swie Hian are being sold as a set at Bonhams’ Prints, Photograph­s and Works on Paper sale (estimate: HK$700,000–1.1 million). bonhams.com
