Description

Barry did a Robert E. Howard Portfolio in the late 1970s and this piece was announced as part of it, though it remains a mystery as to why it was omitted at the last moment. A spectacular and detailed work. I love this late 70s period for BWS.

Was wondering where this went.  If figures.  It was one of my favorite pieces from that auction.  I'm so jealous that you get to look at this in person every day.  Congrats Rob!

Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. Leaving that out of the portfolio was like his one-time roommate leaving certain plates out of the Frankenstein book!

A shining example of Barry's innervision into the worlds of R.E.H.
