We all know how the story ends (and begins) now but Darth Vader revealing that he was Luke’s father was the plot twist heard around the world, and you can celebrate that earth-shattering moment with the Star Wars I Am Your Father Signed Canvas Giclee Print.
This canvas print, signed and embellished by artist Christian Waggoner, measures 35 inches tall by 35 inches wide, and will only be available for a very limited run of 25 hand-numbered pieces worldwide.
An Atlanta native, Christian Waggoner brings a fresh, new look to the world of Star Wars fine art. His uniquely enhanced photo-realistic style makes viewer wonder how he achieves such skillful detail with a mere brush and canvas. Waggoner has gained prestige and success through more than a decade of high-profile commissions, including impressive paintings of athletes for the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, as well as this and future exciting new releases for the Star Wars fine art program.
Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”) is an invented name for the process of making fine-art prints from a digital source using ink-jet printing. The word was coined to distinguish commonly known industrial “Iris proofs” from the fine-art prints artists were producing on the same printers. The name has since come to mean any high-quality, ink-jet print, and is often used in galleries and print shops to denote such. In the past few years, the word (as a fine-art term) has come to be associated with prints using fade-resistant “archival” inks and the inkjet printers that use them. A wide variety of substrates are available, including various textures and finishes such as matte photo paper, watercolor paper, cotton canvas, or artist textured vinyl.
If The Empire Strikes Back was your favorite Star Wars movie because of this pivotal scene that would put any and all drama on the Maury Povich show to shame, then don’t waste any time in snagging one of the 25 posters.
The Star Wars I Am Your Father Signed Canvas Giclee Print is available for $1,249.99 at Entertainment Earth and Newegg.com.
