Two original paintings created by visual effects designer and artist Ian Scoones, for the sci-fi television series Doctor Who. These two works, completed in 1994 but based on imagery conceived for the opening of the 1979 episode City of Death, form part of the basis for the limited edition 'Spacescapes' print series, of which only 2,000 copies were created. These are the hand-painted originals, signed by Scoones.

The first of the paintings depicts the spider-shaped black Jagaroth spaceship, set against the scorched and fractured surface of prehistoric Earth, the second depicts a panoramic view of a barren Earth landscape. Both paintings are created using gouache on board, and come mounted in card frames. The artist has signed and dated both. Dimensions (framed): 45 cm x 60 cm (17.75 x 23.75")
