“Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince”
The Harry Potter Book Cover Art Series

• This image is taken from the book cover for “Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince,” the sixth in the seven-book series by esteemed writer J.K. Rowling.

• The Harry Potter Series is noted as the best-selling fictional series in history.

• The original image was drawn and painted by noted artist Mary GrandPré.

• This is the first time J.K. Rowling has allowed this art to be used for anything but the book covers. They can only be reproduced as fine art prints.

• GrandPré incorporates elements and characters of each Harry Potter novel in the book covers. With “Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince,” Harry and Dumbledore are featured as Headmaster Dumbledore is helping his apt pupil prepare for an expected showdown by taking Harry to remembered incidents in the life of his old enemy. Ron, Hermione and Ginny gaze up at the dark mark indicating that Voldemort’s reign of terror is about to change their world.

• The illustrations of renown artist Mary GrandPré have appeared in each of the Harry Potter books. Her work has also appeared in Time Magazine and The Atlantic Monthly. Additionally, her talent for environment/scenery has been used for Dreamworks on the production of Antz.

• Each piece in the edition of 500 is hand-signed by Mary GrandPré.

• Please contact Ruth to request your matched set numbers from the previous five Book Covers. Numbers will be held until August 31. Any requests after this date are not guaranteed.
