The artwork titled “Arzach,” created by Jean Giraud in 1975, belongs to the Fantasy Art movement and is classified within the genre of illustration.
The artwork depicts an expansive and fantastical scene, characterized by a hovering island city majestically suspended in the sky. The city’s intricate architecture is reminiscent of medieval castles, complete with tall spires and detailed buildings. In the foreground, a lone figure adorned in elaborate garments appears to be observing the floating city from atop a grassy hill. The landscape is serene, with a soft gradient sky transitioning from light green near the horizon to a deep azure higher up, dotted with scattered clouds. The composition artistically combines elements of natural scenery with fantastical architectural imagination, evoking a sense of wonder and exploration.
