I read a bit more into it and a lot (if not all) of the Elric art by Amano is official and illustrated for the books. He did cover art for one of the releases novels and some of the Tale of the Eternal champion volumes.
Pic related is official and from Fortress of the Pearl.
>I first became aware of Yoshitaka Amano's work in the early 1980s when he was illustrating and painting the covers for my own Elric books and the Japanese version of Behold the Man. I loved his work, and thought that he, of all artists, had managed to capture the essential spirit of my characters. Many other fine artists, such as James Cawthorn, Michael Whelan, and Robert Gould had depicted them, and I certainly should not wish to minimise their work, but for me Amano captured something no other artist had seen.
Is a quote by Moorcock doing an interview.
