Where is this art from?

[Captain_Koloth]

I just moved and during the move, unfortunately one of my Star Trek items got damaged. I'd like to replace it but I'm actually having some trouble figuring out exactly where it came from since I got it at a convention. It's a print I got of the fourth image from the top here: http://www.mccallstudios.com/star-trek/

It's labeled as copyright 1991. As I recall I believe it was from some sort of collection of lithographs, possibly for the 25th anniversary, labeled something like The Art of Star Trek (though not exactly that I think). The dealer had separated out each print to sell separately and since I only bought this and one other I'm not quite sure where it came from (and hence what to search for on eBay so I can get it replaced!) Can anyone help me identify this?

I think the text that goes alongside it is pretty self-exclamatory.

Self-exclamatory! Wow!

Sorry, I'm on a mobile browser and see no text... I see something about how it was part of Star Trek TMP but not what lithograph set it would have been part of. I don't have easy access to a desktop at present, is there more?

When TMP was in development artist Robert McCall was asked to make some conceptual art for the film as the script stood at the time. That is why some of the scenes he painted are not in the finished film because the script had later changed.

I don't understand what you are asking. The link you provided is the late Robert McCall's site, I think he's the one who painted it. Have you tried using the "Contact" link to ask about it and see if you can get another print?

Wow that stuff is beautiful!

 

[Captain_Koloth]

No I know what it is and who painted it. I think the question is being misunderstood. What I'm saying is the particular print I had came from a specific set of lithographs issued I believe for Star Trek's 25th anniversary. Since my copy of that page was damaged, I'd like to, if possible get a new copy of the set it came in, but I have been unable to ascertain the name of the lithograph set. It was something like "The Star Trek 25th Anniversary Art Collection" but not exactly that.

I did ask. Came up empty. That's why I'm trying to find the name of the original collection so I can hopefully eBay it.

McCall was brought in well after principle photography, in the Trumbull era, to provide V'ger concepts, the bulk of which were for Spock's reshot solo spacewalk. They are not so much from deleted scenes as they are simply concepts that went unused in the final VFX shots that did make the film.

Is it this portfolio? Because I have it.

 

[Captain_Koloth]

YES!!! Thank you!!

 

[RAMA]

YES!!! Thank you!!

It is on ebay. It's called The Star Trek 25th Anniversary Art portfolio: Visions of the Final Frontier.

I used to have some of these framed on the wall in the 90s, now they're all back in the packet.

It's interesting that the theatrical version of TMP never shows the entire V'Ger vessel. Only showing bits and pieces of leaves a sense of mystery.

Then TMP-DE gave us a shot of the entire V'Ger vessel as it entered Earth orbit, similar to the design seen in McCall's painting.

IMO, that's one of the more CGI video-gamey looking visuals in the DE... maybe they should have left well enough alone.
