The artist skillfully captures the essence of their relationship through intricate details and expressive faces. Chumah stands tall and proud, embodying strength and loyalty as he gazes at his aunt with reverence. His aunt exudes wisdom and warmth, her weathered face reflecting a lifetime of experiences.
