This lovely illustration, for the MG book series The School for Good and Evil, is by Italian illustrator Iacopo Bruno. It’s the cover art for the third book, The Last Ever After. Bruno’s previous covers were OK, but this one really knocks it out of the park with its black and white swans and twin female faces, one with black hair, the other white, who stare mournfully at each other with a sexual tension that brings to mind the psychological ballet movie Black Swan.
Here’s another of the artist’s illustrations.
