Had a bit of a Google reverse image search and turned up the following:

The painting is unused cover art for the "Star Wars: Union" comic book, and the artist is Igor Kordej (sometimes spelled Kordey).

The published covers were ultimately done by Duncan Fegredo, with the cover for the final issue showing clear similarities to Kordej's version. No idea if the general cover outlines were mandated by Dark Horse Comics or Lucasfilm, or whether one artist copied the other, or whether it's just coincidence. Anyway, here is the one they went with:



Still a pretty unrecognizable-looking Luke, but it's miles better than that balding reptilian leather mummy and his psycho vampire bride.

STAR WARS COMICS PRESENTS WHAT IF...
What if Luke went back to Tattooine and spent the rest of his days as a moisture farmer, never used sunblock and just let the desert winds and twin suns beat down upon his skin for 35 years? What if he found love with a thrice-divorced Botox addict named Mara Jade?

(They look like a couple that would be on an episode of Real Sex about summer camp for middle-aged swingers. "Me and the Missus rode up here from Arizona, we wouldn't miss it for the world. We love the atmosphere, the friendship, the community...and the tail ain't half bad.")

It's worth noting that Drew Struzan was painting Luke around the age he was then as a fresh faced babe and he looks totally normal in the comic. (Mara is wearing a contemporary white lace wedding gown and I think that's really funny. It's not even kind of Sci fi at all)

Looking up the event itself, they got married twice in one week. Once in the Jedi Temple and then officially on Corusant, they spent they entire week trying to sort wedding stuff while people tried to kill them. Mara kept trying on terrible dresses, Luke gets into a massive brawl at his stag do, a gang try to kill the woman delivering a dress

I'm pretty sure the Leia/Han wedding got the same treatment. Courtship of Princess Leia had them getting married in a brief epilogue, but it got officially fleshed out in some other book.

Spare batteries are pretty key.
Did that particular comics series not have likeness rights for Mark Hamill, Billy Dee Williams, and Harrison Ford, but did have rights for Carrie Fisher?

Because Princess Leia is the only character who looks like the actor.

Quite the opposite - there's tons of panels that are referenced directly from frames in the movies:




As well as likenesses of actors that they definitely didn't have the rights to, including (but not limited to):

Steve Buscemi


Bruce Campbell


Bruce Willis


Tommy Lee Jones


Jack Nicholson


Peter Stormare
