The Chronicles of Narnia - First Look at the Artwork

Posted by:

Dark Horizons was given the chance to officially premiere this first proper artwork from the movie, more specifically imagery of the opening scenes in WW2 Britain when the children are sent to the house containing the magical wardrobe. Here is one image, titled "The Bombing of London".

Over 50 years ago, C.S. Lewis created a land of wonder and enchantment called Narnia, and since then over 60 million readers have discovered the wondrous world that exists beyond the back of the wardrobe.

C.S. Lewis once wrote that the idea for the Narnia books came to him from images: "a faun carrying an umbrella, a queen in a sledge, a magnificent lion." From these mental pictures he created the Land of Narnia, a land populated with a rich diversity of beings, some very like their counterparts in our world, some derived from his knowledge and love of myth and fairy tale, and some, like Puddleglum, purely his own invention. Here you can meet them all!
