The painting is inspired by Kate Angell's quote, "Outer beauty attracts, but inner beauty captivates." It depicts a scene in an African salon where the subject is immersed in reading a book. This juxtaposition highlights the importance of nurturing inner qualities alongside outer appearance. The salon setting symbolizes a space where women focus on enhancing their beauty and confidence, while the act of reading emphasizes the value of intellectual enrichment. Incorporating elements of contemporary African salons adds authenticity to the portrayal, enriching the narrative of inner beauty and self-care within modern African society.
