De oorlog van de Sambers #7

Set against the brooding atmosphere of Herfst 1775, this first volume of the Maxime & Constance arc draws you into an 18th-century world of passion and shadow. Boidin's cover art, working from Yslaire's vision, pairs an intimate, almost sorrowful embrace between two figures in soft warm tones with a striking pair of oval portrait miniatures below — a pale, sharp-featured man and a dark-eyed woman in period dress — hinting at intertwined destinies. Published by Glénat in 2014, this entry in the De oorlog van de Sambers saga promises elegance, intrigue, and the melancholy beauty the series does so well.
