Emperor of Mankind with Roboute Guilliman, Lorgar Aurelian and Space Marines in The First Heretic Series

This art is by “The Horus Heresy” series from the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The scene is a detailed black-and-white drawing that features several prominent figures:

Roboute Guilliman: The central figure is Roboute Guilliman, Primarch of the Ultramarines. He is depicted wearing ornate armor adorned with the Ultramarines’ symbols and skulls.

The Emperor of Mankind: The tall, imposing figure to the right, with a halo and elaborate armor, is the Emperor of Mankind. He is portrayed in his characteristic ornate armor and regal bearing.

Space Marines: Surrounding Guilliman and the Emperor are several Space Marines in power armor. Their armor is heavily detailed with symbols of the Imperium, including skulls and other gothic motifs.

Lorgar Aurelian: The bald figure with the inscribed parchment on his armor, kneeling in front of Guilliman, is Lorgar Aurelian, the Primarch of the Word Bearers, known for his deep devotion and later heresy.

The background shows a ruined cityscape, indicative of a battlefield or the aftermath of a siege, consistent with the grim and war-torn setting of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The bottom text references “The First Heretic” by Aaron Dembski-Bowden, which is a novel in “The Horus Heresy” series focusing on Lorgar and the Word Bearers’ fall to Chaos.
