Description Characters etc. done (in a quasi-medieval, cartoonish style)  for a board game 'Salernum', based on the history of the city of Salerno in Italy. The facebook page associated with the game, which was produced by Mara Montagnani, can be seen here:

The figures all relate to the city (and the wider region's)  early medieval history.
Top row Arechi Duke of Benevento, Charlemagne, Queen Adelperga,  the city of Amalfi, Tortula di Ruggiero, Pietro Barilario.
middle row: Constantine l'Africano, Paolo Diacono, pope Gregory VII, princess Sichelgaita, Robert Guiscard, Archbishop Alfano.
bottom row: royal treasure, St Gaudioso bishop of Salerno, relics of St Matthew, duelling knights.



These were done a year or so ago.

These are very cool, I particularly like Queen Adelperga and princess Sichelgaita but all of them are really nice. I also like how you portrayed Amalfi, it has a very nice touch to it!

A nice group. I was thinking that this style would be perfect for children's books.

Beautiful!! I love all that is medieval.  Are they characters that are part of the history of Salerno? Who are they exactly?
