Dave Dorman “Leia as Boushh” Print

This is a print from 1998 by Dave Dorman, who also did the “Knockin’ at Jabba’s Door” and “In the Court of Jabba the Hutt” prints. I think this one precedes both of those prints, however. It shows Leia in her Boushh disguise (sans helmet) standing in front of Han in carbonite. Of course there was never a scene exactly like this in the film, since she didn’t take off her helmet until after defrosting Han, but a little artistic license is certainly forgivable. I forgot to take any pictures of the print before having it framed, but it basically just has a larger white border, and there is some copyright text underneath the “STAR WARS” logo that I had them mat out. The mat I chose is a reddish brown with hints of gold and really seems to go well with the print. Click the image for a larger view.

Dorman did a remarque (hand-drawn pencil drawing) on one corner of the print of Leia with her helmet on. I got this print second-hand, so I’m not sure if he did the same remarque on all of these pieces or what. It’s pretty nicely done, though.
