Godfried Teutonicus




At the time this portrait was created, Godfried Teutonicus was 343 years old. He was the patriarch of a respected dwarf clan, and the grandfather of the famous Hericus Teutonicus, the last dwarf on the Serbian soil.

  12. He doesn't look a day over 330 to me.

    This is such a wonderful drawing - thanks for sharing.

    Petar, what did you use to prepare the surface you were drawing on?

  13. I drew Teutonicus inside a copy of the Serbian edition of Steel Bashaw. It is just a Kunstdruk paper with that yellowish-structure surface printed on it. Thanks, John!
