The Royal Gallery
A museum of a kingdom.
Move your light across the hall; tap a frame to step inside. The figures, the family, the spear and drum, and the land — each awaiting its portrait.
The Figures of the Line
The spear, the drum, and the house — likenesses and emblems, recorded and remembered.
The House Today
The living family — to be filled with portraits by VG. The living are named only with their leave.
The Spear & The Drum
The emblems of two houses joined — the warrior’s spear of the Ngoni, the drum of the Ng’oma.
The Land of the Drum
The country of the story — from the highlands a prince left to the great water that received him.
