More details
This quaintly illustrated cover shows how a mood can be created through choice of illustration. By using a soft, realistic style of water colour painting, the artist has evoked the idea of the summer-time in the English countryside. This paper cover is also hiding another cover beneath it, as the hardback book it covers features an elaborate pattern of foliage and tracery.
