The sad side of journalism. This cover was probably painted quite some time ago, and placed on a shelf waiting for Mandela to pass away.

If I were actually important it would creep me out knowing that on a shelf was maybe a photo, and some articles all written referring to me in the past tense. Kind of creepy.
