A fondly remembered cover that is still as much a visual treat as it was in the 80s. Congrats.

Is there a better female warrior cover? If so, tell me about it please haha.

The piece has been kept in excellent condition, practically untouched since it was painted.

A breathtaking piece!  The painting heightens the tension in this hunter and prey situation with amazing lighting for all the swampy nighttime atmosphere.  It works all the way around.

Pretty amazing - Bolton is incredible but often ignored by the general collecting public

I believe that are just not so many pieces in circulation compared with the breadth and volume of his work.
