Leather Stocking kronieken #4

Three frontier figures dominate this striking 2023 cover by Georges Ramaïoli: a kneeling buckskin-clad scout with a flintlock pistol, a weathered elder in a grey cloak gripping a rifle, and a younger frontiersman in a fur-trimmed cap standing tall behind them, all set against a snow-covered landscape beneath a bare, frost-white tree. Crowds of colonists and Native Americans fill the background, suggesting a world of tension and uneasy coexistence on the edge of the wilderness. Adapting James Fenimore Cooper's enduring frontier saga, this fourth volume of Leather Stocking Kronieken — "De Pioniers" — promises richly detailed artwork and a story steeped in the atmosphere of early American frontier life.
