Yes, from what I can understand (and from what my Spanish friends told me a while ago) the Spanish publisher of ASoIaF made this artbook to celebrate the tour GRRM did in Spain this summer. That's where I got my book signed, actually :-)
I am glad they did something like this, because I keep thinking ASoIaF is sorta poor on the artistic side. I mean, one only official artbook and even rather hard to find? WTF? Idk, I think they could do more about it - I mean, that's thousands of pages, there's plenty of stuff to be illustrated :-)
