A dark, muted cityscape of London with dimly lit alleys and the outlines of a grim workhouse form the backdrop. The color palette comprises muted grays and browns, with accents of light blue and pale yellow subtly highlighting Oliver and parts of the background to symbolize hope amidst hardship.
The author's name "Charles Dickens" is elegantly rendered in a classic serif font at the top, while the book title "Oliver Twist" is in a bold, sans-serif font below the image, using a pale yellow color for contrast.
Centralized layout with Oliver's silhouette as the main focal point, the cityscape filling the background space, and the text aligned systematically to create balance and focus on the character.
The visual composition captures the essence of Oliver Twist by emphasizing his innocence and the surrounding adversity using a silhouette against a dim cityscape—a symbolic representation of resilience in harsh conditions. The muted color palette is contrasted by pale shades to subtly suggest hope, aligning with the book's narrative of perseverance.

The choice of matte, textured paper further immerses the reader in the book's historic and atmospheric setting, offering a tangible connection to the world within the book.
