The Josh Kirby Estate has officially launched Series One of the Limited Edition Fine Art Prints featuring iconic cover art from Terry Pratchett's Discworld.Kirby was adored as the artist who helped launch Sir Terry Pratchett’s the Discworld book series and was an award winning science fiction, horror and fantasy painter with a career that spanned six decades. His vast body of work includes iconic book cover art for literary greats including Ian Fleming, Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Alfred Hitchcock, Richard Matheson, Jack Kerouac, Jules Verne and Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Rob Liano, Chief Marketing Officer of the Josh Kirby Estate, said “We are proud to be able to honor Josh Kirby’s legacy with these incredible fine art prints. Josh was very specific when it came to choosing colours for his illustrations so we took painstaking steps to ensure these have been reproduced exactly as he would have wanted. This superior quality has never been seen before in a Kirby Discworld print and are true collector’s pieces."
Long awaited by fans, the Limited Edition, Series One kicks off where it all began with the first four books that launched the Discworld legacy, as they hold a special place in the hearts of fans worldwide; The Colour of Magic, The Light Fantastic, Equal Rites and Mort. There are three editions to choose from, Limited, Collector’s and Out of This World, each becoming more limited and larger in size.
Josh Kirby Estate CEO, Amy Anderson, said “I’m just so excited for fellow fans of Josh to experience a true unaltered version of his work, without the hindrance of a book jacket at the quality warranted a true master of science fiction and fantasy art."
The prints will be available, as long as they last, in the UK, Europe, Australia, the USA and Canada. You’re welcome to inquire directly to the Estate if you don’t find your location at the online store.
