Description
Here's another major piece I did for for McGraw Hill's "Timelinks" project. It depicts Mansa Musa, the immensely rich 14th century King of Mali, flanked by a couple of spear-carriers and with two supplicants kneeling in front of him.
If you know about west Africa, there's a number of problems with this image (for example, there is no royal umbrella). However, I had a written description of Musa's appearance and I tried to adhere to it, more or less, but I didn't have that much time to do research. I still like how it turned out though.

You say in the description that you based this off of a written description of Musa's appearance, could you possibly share that description?
