Design Concept
A veiled woman in flowing black robes stands in silhouette against a dark and moody background. The crown is faintly glimmering atop her head, made of intricate, antique gold detailing. In her hand, she holds an elegant, blood-streaked blade, its sharpness shining subtly. The backdrop features soft, faded textures of an ancient stone castle, with a slightly cloudy and desolate sky above, adding an air of historical sadness. The woman's features are obscured, adding mystery to her identity and emphasizing "a name" as a motif.
Elegant serif fonts such as Baskerville or Garamond for the title, designed in large, regal gold serif letters. The words “The Crown, The Blade” are prominently bold, while “And Her Name” is delicately italicized underneath. The author’s name, “Noura,” is in smaller gold uppercase letters below the title, with a slight spacing between them.
The woman's silhouette is centered in the design, with the crown and blade drawing attention immediately. The title takes up the top third of the cover in a large size, while the author’s name is discreetly in the lower portion of the design. Faded textures of history fill the background, ensuring the main subject stands out.
The visual composition tells a story of tragedy and history through the woman’s mysterious appearance, as viewers sense her connection to the crown and blade without seeing her face. This design communicates a sense of sorrow and purpose, tying to the themes of romance and loss. The use of serif fonts like Baskerville and Garamond aligns perfectly with historical fiction, as they evoke a classic, timeless feel while ensuring readability. The delicate foiling on the crown and blade catches the light subtly, drawing the reader into the intricate elements of the story. The parchment-textured matte finish reinforces the historical narrative, giving the book an artisanal, antique feel that suits the era and tragic themes.
