The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde

The cover design for The Happy Prince combines the narrative’s weight and atmosphere with the fairy tale essence of the story. By merging the sky and the city, a sense of melancholy, present throughout the tale, is conveyed. Once the gold peels away, the Prince becomes lost in the city's mundane reality, remaining a part of its lingering sorrow.

Golden elements define the focal point for the reader, and their contrast with the city's cool tones further amplifies the atmosphere and visual impact. The interior illustrations follow the same tone, focusing on depicting significant moments from the fairy tale.
