Egyptian Queen
The 1969 painting Egyptian Queen by Frank Frazetta is often hailed as one of his most iconic works, frequently likened to his own “Mona Lisa.”
This artwork made its first appearance on the cover of Eerie Magazine #23 in 1969 and later graced the cover of Creepy Magazine #92 in 1977. The painting famously inspired Princess Leia’s iconic costume in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (1983), as documented by costume designer Aggie Guerard Rodgers and the Frazetta family.
On May 16, 2019, Egyptian Queen was auctioned by Heritage Auctions in Chicago, Illinois, fetching a record-breaking $5.4 million, making it the most expensive piece of original comic book art ever sold at public auction.
Archival History & Lucas Museum Provenance
Painted in 1969, Egyptian Queen is celebrated as Frank Frazetta’s supreme masterpiece—often hailed as fantasy art’s "Mona Lisa." Executed in oil on canvasboard, it debuted on the cover of Eerie Magazine #23 (1969) and later Creepy #92 (1977). In May 2019, the masterwork made international history at Heritage Auctions, selling for a record-breaking $5.4 million.
Today, Egyptian Queen is on display at the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles, celebrating Frank Frazetta’s profound impact on modern visual storytelling—including inspiring Princess Leia’s iconic costume in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (1983), per costume designer accounts and Frazetta family archives. This museum-grade archival print is produced directly by Frazetta Girls from the original estate archives.
