Greta Queen of the Queens — Amazing Stories Feb 1938 Throne Room Cover

A sweep of crimson robes dominates the center as a white-bearded ruler enthroned in an exotic domed palace receives a broad-shouldered hero and his auburn-haired companion. Arrayed behind the throne stand alien guardsmen in vivid green uniforms and gilded conical helmets, while arched violet stonework recedes into atmospheric depth. The composition balances planetary-romance adventure with regal ceremony, evoking a lost civilization on another world.
