(Go ahead and click on that to stare at its massive awesomeness.)

While most of us will be desperately waiting for any and all news about Star Wars: The Force Awakens or any of the future standalone films out of this year’s Star Wars Celebration, fans looking for an amazing piece of pop culture art to hang on the wall are in luck. San Francisco artist Robert Xavier Burden reportedly spent more than 2,000 hours over the last 18 months working on “The 20th Century Space Opera,” and the result, as you can see above, is nothing short of spectacular. From beloved characters to the icons that influenced George Lucas’ franchise, this oil painting is a must-have for any Star Wars fan.

Of course, if you want the original, you’d better be prepared to sell your home. “The 20th Century Space Opera” will be on display at the convention in Anaheim, which runs from April 16-19, but bringing home the original copy will cost you $200,000. The good news is that Burden has prints available for a much more modest $250, or approximately 72 galactic credits*.

*I have no clue if that’s accurate. I was just trying to impress you.
