Malkia Shields
Alizaliwa Akijua — Born Knowing
Symbols of divine insight and fire-tempered resolve, the owl and sword stand alone in this offering from the Malkia wa Dunia series. Rendered on their own canvas with magnified scale and rich texture, each image serves as a visual mantra: one for wisdom carried through generations, the other for the courage demanded of leadership and legacy.
These pieces are offered without the queens — not in absence, but in intentional space. They complement the core series while speaking boldly on their own, ideal for anchoring rooms with themes of resilience, reflection, and reverence. Whether chosen as standalone art or paired with portraits of Makeda, Nzinga, Ashanteewaa, Amina, Moremi, or Amanirenas, these icons transcend context — they embody truth.
Available in two backgrounds and large sizes for impactful display
Museum-quality print to preserve symbolic detail and depth
Versatile styling for personal sanctuaries, creative workspaces, or institutions of learning
Designed to harmonize with the larger Malkia wa Dunia collection — or to shine alone in powerful simplicity
