Description

Frank Frazetta - Original Oil Painting "Thor's Flight" (1968). Frank Frazetta is recognized as one of the greatest fantasy artists of the century and looking at this piece it's easy to see why. His work has become the standard against which all fantasy art is judged. From an incredibly fertile period of Frazetta's career, this piece was originally published as the cover to the Paperback Library edition of Thongor in the City of Magicians by Lin Carter. Here Frazetta depicts Thor, the legendary Norse God, riding a winged beast over a lake of fire. This piece demonstrates Frazetta's expressive sense of color, with his wondrous imagination laying out a beautiful scene of fantasy. His inspired design, color blending and composition integrate into a fantasy world full of life. This oil on canvas is truly a wondrous work, and will be treasured by any collector. The art is in excellent condition, and measures 19.5" x 24".
