Bluebells Wood #[nn]

A haunting coastal atmosphere permeates this Glénat release, with Guillaume Sorel's cover painting a striking contrast between a solitary nude figure seated on dark, wet rocks in the foreground and a distant silhouette calling out from a snow-dusted clifftop dwelling above a moody, grey sea. The muted blues and whites give the scene a dreamlike, melancholy quality that speaks to themes of isolation and longing. Sorel's painterly style is immediately arresting, making Bluebells Wood a visually compelling work from 2018.
