Create a large-scale historical painting of Timbuktu in 1400 as a bustling Islamic trading center in the Mali Empire. Show mud-brick architecture like the Djinguereber Mosque, markets with gold, salt, and spices, the Niger River with boats, and camel caravans in the desert background. Include three diverse people in the foreground: a Tuareg nomad (light-skinned, veiled in blue robes, holding salt), a Mandinka merchant (dark-skinned, in colorful boubou, weighing gold), and an Arab scholar (olive-skinned, in thobe, with manuscripts). Style: vibrant like a Persian miniature with sunset hues, emphasizing cultural diversity and trade activity. See more
