Vividly realized original color painting by artist Dean Morrissey for the cover of Elf Defense, a 1988 fantasy novel by Esther M. Friesner. Accomplished in oil on 23.75 x 29.75 canvas, this highly impressive photorealistic painting depicts a bearded elf standing on his desk and admiring a small golden object in his hand, with the office setting featuring a spindle, telephone, bookcase, strewn papers, and a Time magazine with the elf pictured on the front cover. Signed in the lower right by Morrissey, who dates the painting to August 1987. Framed without glass to a slightly larger size. In fine condition. Accompanied a first edition paperback of Elf Defense by Esther M. Friesner.
