A large Dutch warship from 1820 AD dominates the cover, situated in the bottom-left corner, its sails billowing as it prepares for battle. To the right, vivid cannon fire illuminates a small island with steep cliffs in the distance, seen as the defenders' stronghold. Guns, swords, and cannons scattered amongst battling figures are faintly visible amidst the chaos near the base of the island. The sky above transitions from a muted black to deep orange hues, giving the impression of battle at dusk. Waves in the foreground are rendered dynamically with reflections of fire, smoke, and the twilight.

The Dutch warship and fiery island introduce key elements of tension and danger, while the dramatic dusk colors enhance the emotional impact. The typography is a carefully chosen serif font that evokes the historical theme, with textured elements suggesting the harshness of war. The use of bold color contrasts (orange on black) commands immediate attention to the title while the simpler font for the author’s name ensures legibility. The layout seamlessly integrates the chaotic visuals while keeping the text hierarchy clear. The chosen materials bring a tactile richness with matte providing depth and spot gloss drawing focus specifically to significant visual and textual elements. This combination creates a design that is visually impactful, genre-appropriate, and memorable.
