Kintu | First of the Baganda - Wall Canvas
$130
Kintu sits upon a weathered stone, calm as a man who knows he is the beginning of something. Behind him stands his ox, horns gleaming gold, the faithful companion of every origin story worth telling. Around them stretches a lush field, streams of cloud moving low across the green, the land itself still soft and new. This is the first morning of a people, the moment before a nation has learned its own name. Africa has always begun this way, with one figure, one quiet certainty, and the whole future waiting patiently in the grass.
