Riverwind the Plainsman - Dragonlance by Clyde Caldwell (1990)

Painted by Clyde Caldwell in 1990, this artwork served as the book cover for the Dragonlance: Preludes II fantasy novel Riverwind the Plainsman, written by Paul B. Thompson and Tonya C. Cook and published by TSR, Inc. Set within the sunken ruins of ancient Xak Tsaroth amidst dragon-carved stonework and cascading waterfalls, the composition captures the Que-Shu warrior Riverwind defending himself with a crystal-tipped spear against a menacing serpentine adversary. The painting illustrates Riverwind's dangerous quest across Krynn to find tangible proof of the true ancient gods so that he might earn the right to wed Goldmoon, an ordeal that leads directly to his discovery of Mishakal's Blue Crystal Staff and precipitates the pivotal events of the Dragonlance Chronicles.
