Our expert's notes

Hand-drawn artwork depicting the Tower of the Serpent from John Milius’ action adventure Conan the Barbarian. Rendered by production designer Ron Cobb, the illustration is titled “The Tower Of Serpents” and shows an early concept for Thulsa Doom’s (James Earl Jones) temple in Zamora where his snake cult worshipped the god Set. Conan (Arnold Schwarzenegger) infiltrated the tower, where he battled a giant snake.

Drawn with pastels and coloured pencils on paper , the artwork shows a tall tower lit by the moon, with winding serpents carved into the structure. The artwork shows “CONAN” and “THE TOWER OF THE SERPENTS” written at the bottom corners in white pencil, and is signed “R. COBB” in blue at the bottom right. The piece includes an original mat-board frame which shows wear due to use and age, but the art remains in very fine condition. Dimensions (artwork): 71 cm x 25 cm x 1 cm (28” x 9 ¾” x ¼”); (mat frame): 85 cm x 65 cm x 1 cm (33 ½” x 25 ½” x ¼”)Please note this lot is sold without copyright, reproduction rights, licencing agreements or any other type of legal releases.
