About
A history of persuasive art in the galaxy.
Propaganda art has become synonymous with life in the galaxy far, far away. Whether it's a poster of a Star Destroyer hovering over a planet in a display of Imperial domination; a symbol painted on a wall to deliver a message of hope on behalf of the Rebellion; or a mural depicting a line of stormtroopers to promote unity with the First Order, this type of art, as an instrument of persuasive fear mongering and impassioned idealism, captures the ever-changing tides of politics and public sentiment across the galaxy.
Star Wars Propaganda is an in-world history that threads together the stories behind these images - why they were created, how they were indicative of the times, who were the artists behind them - and delivers a glimpse into the anger, passion, and corruption that fuel the galaxy's greatest wars.
With ten frame-ready propaganda prints included, this collection brings iconic images of the Star Wars galaxy into your hands.
