A framed, hand-drawn Lando Calrissian (Billy Dee Williams) and guards costume design illustration by costume designer John Mollo from Irvin Kershner's Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Baron Administrator Calrissian and his guards greeted the Millennium Falcon when it landed in Cloud City. This design illustration featuring Calrissian in an early version of his signature cloak is hand-rendered by Mollo in mixed media-including ink and graphite-on drawing paper. The guards flanking Calrissian were one of Mollo's biggest challenges on the film and went through many iterations before being finalized. The artwork is mounted behind museum-grade acrylic in a brown wooden frame and remains in excellent overall condition.
