Royal Dozen: Lorenzo de' Medici - The Magnificent - (1449–1492)

James Hill or Sultana Studios and Alexia Sinclair have created this beautiful picture, Lorenzo de' Medici. When I watch this image the first time, I though "a photoshop composition", but, no, and here we are the making of this  picture.

Of course, to see more from her series "The Royal Dozen" you can view in her portfolio.
