It is said in African proverb “what and old man sees seated, a young person can’t see even if he climbs the tallest tree”. The painting is characterized by an old man in a village setting smoking a pipe while drinking palm wine with a display of cola Nuts and lights emanating from his bush lamp. The old people hold the past, coupled with their many experiences tend to see beyond just what the young see in the present. This honors and gives respect to the old, whom we acknowledge the power and magnitude of their words only as we grow older. Every art relates with people differently, so what u make of the piece may be different from the concept.
