Comment
Oil on illustration board.
From Borisography.org titled under B's for "Broken Stone": "Cover art for Broken Stone by Richard Monaco (Ace Books, 1985) the second book in his two-part Leitus series. See Runes for the cover art for book #1.
The painting is undated but as the book was published in January 1985 I think it safe to assume that it was painted in 1984."
*(I also see it is listed under T for "Talisman", but I am not sure if it has two titles or what that means) Not sure if it is a card or published elsewhere so if anyone has info please let me know,...I am still learning and wow what a catalogue to educate myself on. Purchased unframed with original matte. I will get scan and repost better images as able.
