A monthly wall calendar featuring a gorgeous full-color Pre-Raphaelite painting for each month of the year. Barry Windsor-Smith began his career as a comics artist in the late-60s. Working on Marvel's new "Conan the Barbarian" series, he immediately made a name for himself as one of the most exciting young stylists to arrive upon the scene. Infusing a Pre-Raphaelite influence into comics had never been done before, and Windsor-Smith created many of the most elegant and beloved comics of the 1970s. Then, deciding that mainstream superhero comics were not the best medium to foster his widening artistic ambitions, Windsor-Smith left comics to pursue the creation of single-picture, "easel" works. He released many fine art prints of his own works that reflected a more refined pursuit of his Pre-Raphaelite, Romantic and Symbolist interests. It is these handsome works that comprise the majority of the "BWS OPUS Calendar." 12 full-color plates plus covers and monthly calendar in this oversized calendar.
