Oorlog en liefde #7

A steel-eyed German officer dominates the cover of this seventh volume in Beuriot and Richelle's Oorlog en Liefde series, his Wehrmacht cap and dark greatcoat set against a backdrop of stone archways and crumbling walls that immediately evoke occupied Europe. The subtitle Korte metten adds a quiet tension to the young soldier's unreadable expression — calm on the surface, yet clearly carrying the weight of whatever world surrounds him. It's a beautifully restrained piece of cover work that signals the series' hallmark blend of wartime atmosphere and intimate human drama.
