Today’s artist hails from Annecy in France and he is brilliant.

Marc Simonetti is a freelance illustrator and concept artist and is best known for his work on G.R.R. Martin’s “A song of Ice and Fire,” and his “Iron Throne” concept design inspired by the description in the book. I’m told Marc strictly adhered to the specifications as outlined in the novel which is *slightly* different to the one we see in the television series. Some of the more well-known projects he worked on include Terry Pratchett’s Discworld, “The Royal Assassin” by Robin Hobb, and Terry Goodkind’s “Sword of truth.”
