The grandeur of King Koffees Palace is evident in this monochrome engraving, showcasing its impressive architecture against a backdrop of bustling activity. People can be seen going about their daily lives, adding depth and realism to this snapshot of history. The intricate details captured by the artist allow us to appreciate both the beauty and resilience of African craftsmanship.
