Bonestell, Chesley (Artist)‎

CB-37 is a sketch of a Chesley Bonestell painting. The sketch likely depicts Saturn from Tethys.

This sketch was part of the Chesley Bonestell Early Studies of Planetary Landscapes collection, consisting of a group of 21 oil sketches. The sketches were once housed in a three prong binder, and inscribed by the artist with his Hollywood address. CB-37 is one of the earliest surviving space paintings by Bonestell known to Ron Miller and Frederick C. Durant III.
