Today, Bottleneck Gallery honors the legacy of sci-fi concept designer, Ralph McQuarrie, with a new series of seven Star Wars prints featuring his iconic concept artwork. As BNG explained, “Ralph was originally commissioned by George Lucas in the ‘70s to create concept work based off of the original Star Wars script in order to better pitch the movie and story to film execs. Ralph’s galaxy-defining concept work became a foundational element for Star Wars, and holds a special place in so many fans’ hearts.”
For this release, Bottleneck Gallery has put together a showcase of seven of Ralph’s Star Wars pieces that deeply resonate with with the BNG team. From Yoda surrounded by vivid floral and fauna on Dagobah to Luke and Darth’s thrilling showdown, these seven fine art prints represent a stunning gateway into both Ralph’s work and the original Star Wars films.
The Ralph McQuarrie Star Wars Print Series includes “Yoda on Dagobah”, “Bounty Hunters”, “AT-AT Attacks”, “Imperial Walker and Snowspeeder”, “Sword Fight on Antenna”, “Luke in the Trench”, and “Tie Defense”.
