The Story behind Queen Asantewaa -
Inspired by the legendary Queen Yaa Asantewaa of the Ashanti Empire, this African feminine artwork honours a ruler remembered for her bravery and determination during the resistance against British colonial rule. Entrusted with protecting the sacred Golden Stool — a powerful symbol of Ashanti identity and sovereignty — she became a symbol of courage when she rallied her people to fight for their freedom. The lion beside her represents strength, loyalty, and fearless leadership, while the rich earth tones and commanding composition reflect the resilience that defined her legacy. Through powerful symbolism and cultural storytelling, Jedidah’s work celebrates African queens whose stories continue to inspire pride, empowerment, and connection to heritage.
