It occurred to me that Wolfe may have been inspired by an SF magazine 
cover rather than by a painting. I searched The Magazine of Fantasy and 
Science Fiction and found a similar image:

At least it has the gold faceplate and earth. Maybe Rudesind's painting 
is a composite?

Are there other pulp magazines that are candidates?
