Art and Science-Fiction (1986)
Moebius drew this image to illustrate an article by Ray Bradbury about Art and Science-Fiction, written for The Universe, a book edited by Byron Preiss.
Moebius: I absolutely love that drawing, because I think it is one of the earliest pictures I drew which prefigures my current abstract, or non-figurative, work. The detail of the machine or machines under the character shows the same obsession with assembling a variety of non- figurative shapes and making them look shiny and real. Here, of course, that whole non-figurative pattern fits into the overall context, which purports to show a science-fiction writer, caught by the dreamlike nature of his subject, connected to a collective unconscious universe of robotic images through his very body.

From what I know he was universally revered.
