This piece (representing the Zodiac astrological sign) was featured as the cover as well as a calendar page within the 1988 Boris Vallejo Fantasy Zodiac calendar, published by Workman Publishing in 1988. Vallejo has signed at lower right, below scorpion's large claw. Exc. and ready for display as framed under Plexiglas. Comes w/trading card featuring same art.
