ABOUT THE IMAGE: This concept sketch for the poster of Irvin Kershner's Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back was drawn by renowned artist Tom Jung. Jung designed several classic one-sheets for the original Star Wars trilogy.
This sketch depicting Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia viewing AT-ATs and snow speeders with an image of Darth Vader in the background was originally sold in by Jung through a Profiles in History auction circa July 2006, among the earliest such auctions of any Jung artwork. Rendered in graphite on white paper, the sketch is hand-labeled "Luke Leia + Solo" and "Empire" in graphite along the edge and signed by Jung along the bottom with a second mock sketch of Luke and Leia labeled "Empire" on the reverse.

ABOUT:
Tom Everhart is a celebrated American painter whose work uniquely bridges the worlds of fine art and popular culture through his exclusive use of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts characters. Initially trained at Yale School of Art and later mentored by Schulz himself, Everhart transitioned from traditional illustration and architectural rendering to a bold, expressive painting style after a life-altering battle with cancer in the late 1980s.
"The "Posing" series did grow out of the previous "Hide and Seek" series that focused on the questions of one's attempt to hide their intellectual honesty in order to seek out a newly designed image... a "Poser" tsunami of posturing between who was being real, and who was obviously pretending to be real, often with the intent to deceive, could no longer be ignored." - Tom Everhart
