Description from the seller

• Pencil on Art Paper – 42 x 30 cm
• Original Studio Sketch by Juan Giménez
• Early Conceptual Work Featuring Armored Warriors
• Certificate of Authenticity Included
• Museum-Grade Collector’s Piece

This captivating pencil sketch by Juan Giménez, one of the most visionary artists in sci-fi and fantasy comics, showcases a powerful pairing of two armored warriors—one stoic and imposing behind a heavy helmet and spiked pauldron, the other a fierce, enigmatic figure with wild, wind-swept hair and intricate costume detailing.

Likely an early conceptual piece or character study, the work exemplifies Giménez’s unmatched skill in creating visually complex, deeply textured figures that suggest entire worlds behind their armor and expressions. The movement of the lines, the weight of the characters, and the kinetic energy of the scene are pure Giménez—raw, visceral, and brimming with narrative potential.

▸ Pencil on Art Paper – Size: 42 x 30 cm
▸ Unpublished Original Character Study

Juan Giménez (1943–2020) remains an icon in the history of bande dessinée and science fiction illustration. Known globally for his collaboration with Alejandro Jodorowsky on La Casta de los Metabarones, his influence continues to shape generations of comic artists.
