This was the king of evil in Papal Rome. To those who have no clue who he is, this man was at one point pope of papal Rome, and that's not to say he was holy. If you've played the game Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, you might know a few things about him, but probably not as much.
a few fun facts about him, he and his dad slept with his sister, he enforced the sale of indulgences, and demanded his face be that of the messiah's. (That is why most portraits of Jesus have Cesare's long straggly hair, and his facial features)
you might wonder though, "His hair is short, and he looks russian." this i know. i had the most crudely made reference of him when i drew the sketch. i didn't even know he had long hair until i searched it on google.... but none the less, the facial features are all the same.
this was a result of many hours of class work, but no more than 3...lol :P but i'm really proud of it. This is one of my top ten favorites made by me.
Hope you guys like the profile of this evil Pope.

Actually, Cesare was the son of Rodrigo Borgia who was Pope Alexander VI. As pope, his father appointed him Cardinal of Valencia. After his father died in 1503, the Borgia influence in Italy fell apart rapidly and Cesare’s fortunes never recovered. Seized and imprisoned, his lands were taken by the Papal States under the two following popes.
Cesare was exiled to Spain in 1504 where he was imprisoned again. Escaping his imprisonment, he joined King John III of Navarre and died in fighting for that king in the city of Viana Spain where he is buried.

Yes, very few people today want to read anything, from newspapers to explanations of why the world is the way it is today (i.e., History).
Your second sentence, “To those who have no clue who he is, this man was at one point pope of papal Rome, and that's not to say he was holy” and your last “…the profile of this evil Pope” suggests that Cesare was pope of the Catholic Church. My comment (above) was to clarify that Cesare was never pope. His father, Rodrigo, was the pope at that time.
Artwise, this is a good profile, done in Renaissance style.
