The story behind Necronom V

Hans Ruedi Giger had the most profound influence on a young Bert Ernie. Necronom V is the first painting Bert ever did – it is a direct copy of Giger’s painting.

The Swiss surrealist painter’s imagery was unique and incredibly skillful. It is part of the Necronomicon series of paintings that Giger did in the 1970s. The creature depicted in the painting was an inspiration for the Alien films.
