Petra Borner / Illustrations for The Perennial Collection
We have just received the new Perennial Collection. 15 x books published by Harper Collins with each book illustrated by our artist Petra Borner.
Petra's brief was to create 1 main artwork which could then be divided into 15 different book jackets - each book illustration flowing into the next.
This project was a true labour of love by Petra Borner, and i hope you'll agree that as a collection and concept it's an outstanding achievement in book jacket design.
Here is a sample of each book cover and an example of how the books fit together as a whole.
