Fantasy Art, Design & Photography Science Fiction
Paradox: The Art of Steve Youll is a lavish 128-page first-edition hardcover showcasing the award-winning science-fiction and fantasy illustrations of Stephen Youll. Measuring a generous 29 cm, every page is rich with colour plates, preliminary sketches and behind-the-scenes commentary that will delight collectors of genre art and modern illustration alike.
Published by Pavilion Books in 2001, this copy arrives in very good shape: the dust jacket shows only light shelf scuffing, the boards are square, pages are crisp and unmarked, and the binding remains reassuringly tight. No inscriptions, ex-libris plates or smoke odours—just a clean example ready for display.
Because it is the scarce first printing and long out of print, Paradox is sought after by aficionados of British fantastic art, graphic-novel enthusiasts and anyone building a curated shelf of contemporary imaginative realism. Its visual storytelling makes it equally appealing to young adults discovering genre illustration and seasoned collectors hunting cornerstone reference works.
Secure this oversized art monograph now to add a touch of other-worldly wonder to your library; with its combination of cinematic spaceships, mythic landscapes and meticulous technique, Steve Youll’s retrospective remains a touchstone title for lovers of sci-fi art and modern illustration.
