Description

This is one of the best Ken Kelly pieces of all time and Robert E Howard covers of all time too for the book The Last Celt.

Extremely pleased to have this addition to my collection. Ken told me shortly before his passing that this piece got him a lot of attention and that he wouldn’t have got half the work he did (Especially with Conan) if he hadn’t painted this masterpiece.

Amazing! The raw emotion and struggle put into this is Kelly putting a piece of himself into the fury and strength of the painting!

Thanks Kirk. Just a few more to get into the collection from the 70s.
I will have another great one to upload in a couple of weeks 😏

Probably the best Kelly painting ever done! I know at least it is my favorite one.

Alex, one of Ken Kelly's greatest paintings. A big bravo on obtaining this stunning piece into your collection. An epic Conan oil painting by the master of fantasy art!
