Book covers designed by Vanessa Bell for her sister Virginia Woolf's books, 1920s-30s. I love these designs. (From the womensart1 Twitter account)
Jess_Read_This Omigosh! These are lovely! Did any ever make it to a published edition? 8y
batsy @Jess_Read_This I'm not entirely sure but I think yes, they were first edition covers for Woolf's Hogarth Press 😍 8y
Jess_Read_This @batsy Some publisher needs to repeat this... these are just gorgeous and have a great story. 8y
