"There once was a man who had a rooster, and many envied him for possession. The rooster grew stronger and stronger, and made the man very successful. One day, a woman came to him and complained that the rooster had eaten all of her corn, and that it needed to be killed. The man agreed to sacrifice the rooster, and he buried it behind his palace. In the spot where the rooster lay, grew a beautiful mango tree with golden fruits..." excerpt from 'The Magnificent Rooster', a Senegalese folk tale about envy and greed. The full illustration will be displayed at the Folklore Illustrated Stories Exhibition at Hamilton House, Bristol from the 6th to the 18th of April 2018. #folklore #folktaleillustration #africanfolklore #hamiltonhousebristol #folkloreexhibition #illustration #illustratorsofinstagram #instaillustration #magnificentrooster #senegalese #storiesofsenegal
