content: Supply title provided by Jake Homiak: "Lion and the Lamb". Painting by Ras Mortimo Planno, (aka Brother Kumi), (Kingston, Jamaica c. 1972) famous as the spiritual mentor to Bob Marley. Oil on canvas board. Depicts a stylized Throne of David flanked by two lions and with a lamb lying in front of the throne. This imagery of the Lion and Lamb lying together reflects the biblical 'End Time' in the Book of Revelation. In the background, armed soldiers stand at the ready behind stylized American and Egyptian flags and a red cross and stylized British flag - the symbolism of the latter portending war in the Middle East. Painting was a gift by Planno to anthropologist Carole Yawney. See also the Papers of Carole D. Yawney, National Anthropological Archives.
