The way these two covers utilised their images sourced from Bridgeman Images really caught our eye - and the standard was so high, we struggled to choose just two!
For almost 50 years, Bridgeman Images has proudly partnered with designers by providing eye-catching photography and artwork that helps bring their book cover designs to life. It's always a pleasure seeing our partners and designers follow this journey.
We have already seen some stunning potential entries for 2022's awards and can't wait to share them with you throughout the year. Stay tuned by following our social media accounts!
