Les Cités obscures #4

Part of Schuiten and Peeters' beloved Les Cités Obscures series, this volume — La Route d'Armilia et autres légendes du monde obscur — gathers tales from the shadowy corners of their extraordinary imagined universe. The cover's delicate circular vignette depicts two figures in close, tender proximity, rendered in Schuiten's characteristically refined linework, setting a quietly intimate tone against the spare white design. A wonderful entry point into the strange and beautifully melancholic world that Schuiten-Peeters built throughout their celebrated collaboration.
