"Fantastic Planet" by Peter Elson was the artist's first published work, in Science Fiction Monthly V2 N11, November 1975, after winning the Readers Painting Competition. The printed centerfold reversed the painting, but I prefer this original version.

Spherical spaceships and space stations were popular subjects in the 1970s, even before the May 1977 premiere of Star Wars.
