Solar System series by Jian Guo. 2016.

Jian Guo is an architect, illustrator and designer who lives and works in Shanghai. He describes his own work as “stained glass-style” art, and enjoys creating fanart - his most popular to date is that of the Lord of the Rings series. 

When the Solar System series was first proposed, there was some debate as to whether or not to include Pluto, as it was no longer considered a planet in the traditional sense. However, the series was deemed an homage to the past, Pluto retaining its place by virtue of its established position in classical astronomy.
