In ‘Patriarch’ by Mandy Shepherd, the essence of a lion’s royalty is captured in stunning detail. The lion, with his magnificent mane and regal posture, commands a sense of authority and wisdom. His golden fur is painted with soft, textured brushstrokes, radiating warmth as he lounges serenely in his domain. The slight glint in his eyes hints at the quiet vigilance of a protector, while the natural backdrop reflects the harmony of the king with the Savannah. This piece beautifully symbolises the dignity and strength of the lion as both a leader and a guardian of his pride.
