The pastoral poems / VirgilHardmondsworth: Penguin, 1949 (Penguin classics)

“For the redesign of the Penguin Classic series, Tschichold reintroduces the common monochromatic frame appearing in rich purple or burnt sienna. Just within the frame, Tschichold adds a thick geometric line, a subtle detail that allows the cover to resonate and gives the series a classic and appealing personality.”
