Changes: Cover art

Revision as of 23:39, 10 January 2015

This article is not part of the Harry Potter universe.
This article covers a subject that is part of the real world, and thus should not be taken as a part of the Harry Potter universe.

The cover for each Harry Potter book possess a similar style. The British publisher Bloomsbury does books in both adult and children's editions, with the adult edition depicting a particular object or place in the cover, and the children's one featuring a major event in the book. Bloomsbury has used several illustrators for their children's covers. The original covers by American publisher Scholastic usually depict an amalgam of objects and people from the book against a common backdrop; the art on all original American editions was by Mary GrandPré. In 2013, Kazu Kibuishi was commissioned to create new cover artwork for 15th anniversary editions of all of the titles. Each depicts a major event within the particular book, such as Harry's introduction to magical society in visiting Diagon Alley for the first time, and his casting of a full corporeal Patronus to affect an important rescue. The cover art and design of either the British children's edition or the American edition is re-used on many, but not all, international editions of the books.

Boxed Sets

American covers

Most art by Mary GrandPré, 15th anniversary art by Kazu Kibuishi.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

The cover shows a Nimbus-riding Harry (in Muggle attire or Hogwarts arches) is about to catch the Golden Snitch, with other Quidditch players in the far distant background. Hogwarts castle appears behind Harry and the arched columns through which he is flying, the bottom of the entire cover shows a soft, red and blue tile floor, which is connected to the columns. The soft floor features a transparent fabric so we can able to see the bottom of the columns, and Fluffy's three vicious heads are visible in an opening in the castle wall. In the distance, the forest's pointed pine trees mirror the pointed towers of the castle, while a unicorn gallops by. The back cover shows a letter-carried owl, Dumbledore, a Bludger, and a key, which is dropped by an owl. The back flap shows an orange curtain with white stars is blown by the owl.

The cover shows Fawkes flying Harry, Ron, and Ginny Weasley to safety after the defeat of Riddle in the Chamber of Secrets. Mrs. Norris is in the back cover, and the front flap has the Basilisk's lurking eye. The title (besides "Harry Potter") is written in blood on the walls like Ginny's messages while possessed.

The alternate paperback edition shows the Chamber of Secrets. The Fifteenth Anniversary Edition depicts the Flying Ford Anglia as it approaches The Burrow.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

The cover shows Harry and Hermione riding Buckbeak. It could be said that all four Marauders appear - Sirius Black is probably the silhouette toward the bottom of the front cover, Peter Pettigrew's rat form is in the front flop, Remus Lupin in Werewolf form runs in the back cover, and Harry's stag Patronus (which resembles James Potter's Animagus) is in the back flap. On the back, we see four Dementors prowling around the castle and the Whomping Willow in the distance. Crookshanks is waiting under the tree. On the back flap apppears a small house with smoke rising from its chimney—probably Hagrid's hut.

The Fifteenth Anniversary Edition shows Harry Potter casting his Patronus to repel the Dementors attacking himself and Sirius Black.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

The entire art depicts the Third Task's maze, along with the Horntail (whose head and wings are on the back cover). The front cover features all Triwizard Champions - Harry Potter holding the Golden egg, Fleur Delacour, Viktor Krum, and Cedric Diggory. An acromantula (partly obscured by Fleur's hair ribbon), Sirius' dog form, distant stands full of spectators projecting above the maze and what looks like a Dementor are also visible.

In the back cover, a pair of red eyes, the Beauxbatons carriage and a hand holding the Goblet of Fire are visible.

The Fifteenth Anniversary Edition shows Harry Potter face-to-face with the Hungarian Horntail, having successfully claimed the Golden egg.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

The picture depicts Harry in the circular room at the entrance to the Department of Mysteries. The back cover has Lupin, Tonks, and Moody opening one of the doors. The deluxe cover depicts 12 Grimmauld Place, with Hedwig flying in the front cover, and broomstick-riding wizards arriving.

The Fifteenth Anniversary Edition depicts Harry and Dumbledore standing together on a rock in the middle of the ocean just outside the Horcrux cave, about to venture inside.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Danish covers

The Danish translations of the books, published by Gyldendal, have been published with at least three cover designs. The original design had inset illustrations by Per Jørgensen. A second design used the same illustrations as the full cover, along with the familiar Harry Potter logo. A third design, to date used only on the first four volumes, has banners of a single colour across the top half of the cover and symbolic art on the lower half.

Dutch covers

The Dutch translations of the books are published jointly by Uitgeverij De Harmonie (in the Netherlands) and Standaard Uitgeverij (in Belgium). The cover art was created by Ien van Laanen and the covers were designed by Anne Lammers.

In 2010, pocket editions were created to boost sales in the Netherlands by Uitgeverij De Harmonie. Rob Westendorp created new cover designs for the book as well, as seen below.

French covers

The French translations of the books, published by Éditions Gallimard, have cover art by Jean-Claude Götting. Götting initially painted front covers only for the first three volumes, and full (front and back) cover art for later volumes; the publishers later commissioned him to repaint the first three covers in full. The covers for most books have Harry and friends in Hogwarts uniform - exceptions being Goblet of Fire, where he wears his Triwizard Tournament robes, and Deathly Hallows, where he wears a simple jacket.

Swedish covers

The Swedish translations of the books are published by Tiden. The cover art was created by Alvaro Tapia.

Other books

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
The original edition's cover was designed to look like Harry Potter's copy of the book, with a sticker featuring his signature, and claw gashes over the cover material. The 2009 edition has a painting of Hogwarts' coat of arms with the animals escaping the frame.

Quidditch Through the Ages
The original edition's cover was designed to look like a Hogwarts Librarybook, complete with seal. The 2009 edition has a painting of a Golden Snitch in a blue background.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard
The UK cover depicts a tree stump (from the story Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump) and a skull (The Tale of the Three Brothers). The US cover has objects from each story: a tree stump, a hopping pot, a fountain (with the three witches and the knight climbing the hill toward it), a heart and three hands holding the Deathly Hallows. Most international covers follow the UK cover - though the German cover has a wizard, the hopping pot, Babbitty Rabbitty holding her wand and a skull, while the Spanish cover has Death, the hopping pot, the fountain, the heart, and Babbitty Rabbitty biting her wand alongside the stump, and the Japanese one just illustrates Babbitty Rabbitty.

 The original edition's cover was designed to look like Harry Potter's copy of the book, with a sticker featuring his signature, and claw gashes over the cover material. The 2009 edition has a painting of Hogwarts' coat of arms with the animals escaping the frame.

 '''''[[The Tales of Beedle the Bard (real)|The Tales of Beedle the Bard]]'''''<br />
 The UK cover depicts a tree stump (from the story ''[[Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump]]'') and a skull (''[[The Tale of the Three Brothers]]''). The US cover has objects from each story: a tree stump, [[The Wizard and the Hopping Pot|a hopping pot]], [[The Fountain of Fair Fortune|a fountain]] (with the three witches and the [[Sir Luckless|knight]] climbing the hill toward it), [[The Warlock's Hairy Heart|a heart]] and three hands holding the [[Deathly Hallows]]. Most international covers follow the UK cover - though the German cover has a wizard, the hopping pot, [[Babbitty Rabbitty]] holding her wand and a skull, while the Spanish cover has [[Death (The Tale of the Three Brothers)|Death]], the hopping pot, the fountain, the heart, and Babbitty Rabbitty biting her wand alongside the stump, and the Japanese one just illustrates ''Babbitty Rabbitty''.
