I ordered both the reg and var (foil) so I could compare the differences in person and select one for framing. It took me a full week having both laid out next to each other to decide and I'm still not sure which one I would recommend others pickup.

<- Foil | Reg ->

Foil effect is very subtle and you only notice the foil when the light hits the print just right.
Reg has higher contrast/brighter colors which really appeals to me. If the two prints were not laid side by side I don't think the contrast difference would be very noticeable. And I like the shimmer when the light catches the foil print so I kept the foil but they are both special in their own ways.

I personally like the titleless art print direction and wouldn't have been as excited about a titled version. Still I love Dune and the art so much I would be in either way.

I love this book, yes, the cover is just right, it describes the history of the book, what a pity there is no delivery in my locality.
I have already read it many times on the internet and dream soon to be able to purchase it to add to my book collection.

A very good book, what a pity they appear so rarely.
In my opinion the cover is a bit too colourful, I think something black and white would be perfect

Dune was one of the first science-fiction novels I read. It appealed to me that even in its free book summary, it clearly addresses the separate peace and issues of religion. As https://freebooksummary.com/category/a-separate-peace shows true friendship's joys, its benefits, and its limits, so Paul of Dune expresses the importance of free will and fate. By the way, I consider that many science-fiction authors considered religion an outdated institution that would eventually lose its direct control over society.

For me it's the most beautiful dune poster ever published. And lately there has been more than enough of that. The poster looks even better live and in color and perfectly conveys the atmosphere of the film in all its facets.
