Description
Great "preliminary/spec" cover painting by Terry for the Michael Moorcock novel, dating from 1977. Another "trial" cover done for Terry's then agent, John Spencer, for "Behold the Man", the cover wasn't used. Unfortunately, the piece was damaged in transit, but it still packs a creepy punch.

Gouache on illustration board
8" x 14"

Thanks Gregg! I loved the combination of classic Biblical, horror and fantasy elements in this one.

That is really over the top as is Moorcock's story! An Incredible image

Agreed! Probably the most striking art for this story as I've seen. Probably why it wasn't published!
