Elden Ringis full of intriguing lore for fans to uncover, ranging from the Frenzied Flame to the terrifying story of Dung Eater. However, the Golden Order is the most prominent aspect of theElden Ringnarrative, and one fan has paid homage to the concept with some beautiful artwork.
For those unfamiliar with the Golden Order, it is essentially a way to describe the rules of theElden Ringuniverse, all of which are based around the Greater Will and the Erdtree. The power of The Two Fingers to interpretthe Greater Willand the idea that death is only complete once beings pass away when near the Erdtree are examples of these rules. Ultimately, the Golden Order exists to keep the Greater Will’s position as ruler intact. Clearly interested in this aspect of the story, Reddit user Spizak shared an epic piece of art based on it.

There is so much to appreciate about the piece, which looks to be set within a chapel or another place of worship. Making up a majority of artwork is a large statue ofMarika, who is seen in a crucifix-like position. Every aspect of Marika, from her hair to her outfit, is full of detail, with some commenters pointing out how the statue genuinely looks real. If that was not enough, Marika’s other half, Radagon, is also represented within the piece.
The first half ofElden Ring’s final boss fight, many players will rememberRadagonfondly due to the flashiness of his moveset and the constant aggression during his battle. Nearly all of his attacks come through Marika’s hammer, an item that is held by his statue and a tool he uses to make a rune arc in this image. The artist brilliantly uses neon for the rune arc, and they also make sure to light up the end of the hammer and the side of Radagon’s body to make his model stand out even more.
Given the significance of the pairing to the Golden Order, it makes sense that they are features so prominently within the piece. Still, there is more to appreciate beyond the two statues. AnErdtreedesign is seen behind Marika, with Erdtrees coming out of a few of the skulls as well. Even the walls are textured, showing how much effort went into making this piece as eye catching as possible. Unsurprisingly, the community’s response has been great, with Spizak being heavily praised and their art getting over 25,000 upvotes since it was first posted.
As fans spend more time with the game, new artwork continues to be shared, ranging fromElden Ringtapestriesto custom figurines. When it comes to pieces that are entirely based on the Golden Order, though, this image will be tough to top.
Elden Ringis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
