The museum will include over 40,000 works of "narrative art," ranging from murals to comic book art and, of course, cinematic artifacts. Among those are the Lucas Archives, "containing models, props, concept art, and costumes from Lucas's filmmaking career," which presumably includes at least a few Star Wars relics. It sounds like Lucas's filmmaking memorabilia will be just a small part of the museum, which is dedicated to illustrated storytelling broadly. Its 35 galleries will include themes like family, childhood, sports, and adventure.

"With only one human face in the composition, the eye is naturally drawn to it. Despite not knowing the surrounding story, the expression and pose - anger pushed to the edge of violence - creates tension that invites curiosity, making the image resonate beyond its visual elements and encouraging the viewer to imagine the world behind it."
