Description

This deluxe edition has 64 more pages of illustrations and sketches than the regular edition. It is expanded from 176 pages to 240 pages and has 160 color illustrations instead of 120. Limited to 400 copies, it is out of print.

From the publisher:

This deluxe 240-page edition includes 5 hand-signed, archival quality giclée prints by Brian Rood, Tsuneo Sanda, Jerry Vanderstelt, Christian Waggoner, and Paul Youll, as well as 50 extra pages of exclusive artwork. Featuring foil-stamped, real-cloth binding and housed in a lush clamshell case, this edition is limited to 400 copies.

The instant and massive success of Star Wars took Lucasfilm by surprise, but in 1978, an industry unto itself was born, consisting of books, trading cards, magazines, video games, and merchandise. The art created for these projects continues to expand the limits and celebrate the iconography of the Star Wars galaxy.

Now the third book in the Star Wars Art series, Illustration, collects the best of these artworks, as curated by George Lucas. Featuring previously unpublished, rarely seen, and fan-favorite art from Mark Chiarello, Dave Dorman, Hugh Fleming, Tim and Greg Hildebrandt, Ralph McQuarrie, Jon J. Muth, Tsuneo Sanda, Drew Struzan, Jerry Vanderstelt, Christian Waggoner, and many others, Star Wars Art: Illustration explores the wide range of styles that illustrators have brought to bear on a galaxy far, far away . . .
