Illustration inspired from the story of Khalifah the Fisherman of Baghdad (1001 Arabian Nights)
This is the scene were the bachelor Khalifah has already catch 3 magical apes and one huge fish which he took it to the first ape from Abu al-Sa'adat the Jew (tied to the tree) in order to receive instructions about the future of this huge price he has catched in the river.
The story is pretty interesting, I highly recommend it.

This is a cool piece . I really like the colors on it, and I like that it tells a story(always nice). One prob I have is that the sea seems to be overlapping the green monkey's island a little bit.
