I just found this artwork from Jedha. It is study that you can find in the book The Art of Rogue One.
I did not yet write any article about Rogue One but this picture of Jedha is really brilliant and this would have be gorgeous to see in the movie. You can really feel the oppression of the Empire on this picture: The Star Destroyer "sucking" life and energy of the city through these tubes, iconic Tie Fighters flying around, the fire and smoke showing devastation, this AT-ST controlling this long line of prisoners, refugees or pilgrims... This page alone shows what can do the Empire to any workld of the galaxy. It helps understand the motivations of the rebellion.
It is always hard to show this in the Films and Rogue One could have done much more on this aspect.
I think this book is worth a look !

Book details :
This book is a visual chronicle of the Lucasfilm art department’s creation of new worlds, unforgettable characters, and newly imagined droids, vehicles, and weapons for the first movie in the Star Wars Story series—Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. In the same format and style as Abrams’ The Art of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the book gives readers unprecedented access to hundreds of concept paintings, sketches, storyboards, matte paintings, and character, costume, and vehicle designs. The Art of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will stand as the definitive guide to the artwork and imagination behind the newest chapter in the Star Wars franchise and will delight Star Wars fans and cineastes for decades to come.
