Favorite Book Covers from The Book Cover Archive

This book cover is really unique because it plays up the different colors that a room would have if there was actually one light lit. Also the fact that everything is centered really brings it all together into a cohesive cover. 

I really liked this cover because the picture explains everything. Nelson Mandela's biography does not even need a title because everyone knows what he looks like. Also the book cover does include the title and author, but in the lower right hand corner, which gives it a professional look. 

This cover is really interesting because it first hypnotizes you, then you start to focus on the center, where there is a outline of a profile of a man. This cover really fits with the title because art can be expressed in different ways to represent different things. 


I really liked this book cover because it actually looks like someone had slept in the bed and had either left it or was taken from the bed. The way all the sheets are crinkled makes it look realistic. 


This cover shows a lot of different types of whales, which the book is obviously about. Also the title is centered between the whales and in the center of the paper. The other information is kind of an after-thought.
