Not sure if this was discussed here, I have been wondering who is this child on this banner:?

I have been seeing this face on flags, T-shirts & banners, but I still know nothing about him/her.

It's a drawing by Ras Daniel Hartman. I would think that it's a pickney who he just did a portrait of. Don't think there's more information than that unfortunately. Would love to be proved wrong though.

it´s officially called `Prince Emmanuel´, so maybe that is the youths name..

The youth is the son of Ras Daniel Hartman. During the 70s there were loads of RAH printed artwork readily, but only seem to see this said sketch in various different formats.
Definitely one of the best Rasta artists, ever!

A friend of his son Mani, not his own son. There are also several portraits and self-portraits with his children.

Seen Satta.
Always thought, or so i was told that it was his son.
Respect for that.

I grow up with Mani is and his uncle Robin and his sister Charm and I was always told that Ras Hartman was is dad,haven't seen Robin for years I would like to have that clarified.
