Many years ago I was inspired by a manip created by Catglee called, I think, ‘A Gift for the Caliph’. Later, I made my own version of the piece using the body of the same model (different face) and would like to re-post it here on the Bunker as a tribute to one of my favorite contributors.
The hapless young Crusader knew perfectly well that death on the battlefield was infinitely preferable to capture. Stripped naked and chained, helpless, against a wall of the dungeon; his muscular body on full display, the handsome captive fought a rising tide of fear and revulsion as his new owner considered the many pleasurable possibilities in the days and weeks to come.

Amalaric’s work never fails to stimulate both mind and body and this is no exception.
What Hamilton said. Amalaric is one of the greats, glad to see his work again here! Thanks!
The composition of this manip is like a work of art. Notice how the sword resting on the wall, the Crusader’s cock and the Caliph’s boot and cane are all parallel. How the horizontal hanging lamp and tiles split the picture into two: on the left a man commands an elephant (showing his large trunk) as on the right the Caliph commands a prisoner (with his large dick). How the three men, a trinity, turn their backs on the actions and pretend not to see. And for the Four Elements (earth = the clay pot, wind = the falcon, rain = the water jug, fire = the candle) are each level to the young stud’s manhood. His virility equal the forces of nature and are more potent than the largest land animal, which is being lead away as the Caliph has found something more amusing to possess.
And that’s what a liberal arts degree will get ya.
Shades of “Mr. Holland’s Opus!” Way to go, Paul!
And way to go, Amalaric! Love these single plates that tell a whole story in themselves.

Nobody does it better than Amalric. This pushes all of my buttons.
Wow! Thanks guys for the awesome feedback. This was a fun one to construct. The part that I got the most kick out of (other than the predicament of the handsome young Crusader- woof!!!) was combining photos and paintings into the single piece. Love your analysis, especially, Paul! Now…hmmmm, I do have some other Crusader-themed manips laying around somewhere…
