Concubine # 1 (illustrated by Lars Brown)

In Baghdad, during the reign of Haroun al Raschid, the city was filled with splendors and wonders that were unlike any city in the world.

His harem was no exception.

In al Raschid’s harem, there were women from every country and of every skin color. Each of these women were adept in the art of pleasure.

This concubine is one of the women in Haroun al Raschid’s harem.

She appears in Sandman # 50, on page 3, in panel 1.

Lars’ approach to this character is pretty straight forward. She is sitting in the harem waiting to be chosen for a night with the caliph. I like that she is winking and offering a kiss to those looking in on her.
