Book Covers


Cover painting by Louis Di Valentin for a 1964 edition of Bend Sinister. Via A Journey Round My Skull. Part Willem de Kooning, part Philip Guston, with shades of that wonderful dreadful angular palette knife-overusing style that used to be around in the 1960s and 1970s. Not that there's any evidence of a palette knife being used here, but you know what I mean.
