Description

Attributed to Ed Valigursky 2005 - This is NOT a re-creation rather a new work, possibly his last. Was this painting in response to his critics? unsigned 22 x 28 oil on board.. everything is for sale if the price is right.

He was great SciFi illustrator.  This is a great painting and may very well have been a retort to a-hole comments like this:

The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction found Valigursky's work to be "perfectly suited for the space operas and futuristic melodramas [of Ace Books]" and praised his depictions of robots and "his characteristic needle-nosed spaceships", but faulted those of his images that "focus on human figures" as "less interesting", concluding that although "Valigursky cannot be regarded as a great sf artist, (...) his distinctive style will always be fondly associated with the simple pleasure of reading unambitious, unpretentious space adventures."

For once, the robot is the least cold hearted in the picture.
