Fantasy Art, Design & Photography Science Fiction
Paradox: The Art of Steve Youll showcases the award-winning science-fiction and fantasy paintings that have made this British illustrator a collector favorite. This 2001 first-edition hardcover from Pavilion Books gathers 128 pages of richly reproduced spacecraft, dragons, and surreal vistas, all wrapped in a protective dust jacket.
Collectors prize this debut printing for its generous 270 × 290 mm format, letting every luminous detail of Youll’s acrylic work leap off the page. The volume sits square and tight, with crisp, unmarked pages—no previous owner wrote, smoked, or dog-eared a single leaf.
Light shelf scuffs on the jacket are the only sign of age; beneath it the boards are fresh, making the book equally suited for display or careful reading. Weighing just over a kilo, it feels substantial in hand yet ships safely in sturdy packaging.
Whether you’re hunting genre art, modern first editions, or inspiration for your own illustration journey, Paradox the Art of Steve Youll delivers a visual feast that young-adult and adult fans will return to again and again.
