I came across these covers on a search today. They’re from Estonia, and different from most covers I’ve seen. The one above is The Magician’s Nephew, but in Estonian, it translates literally as “The Miracle Worker’s Son.” It’s one of the very few covers I’ve seen that depicts Jadis in stasis in the Hall of Images. Not only that, she’s dressed as a warrior-queen, like Boadicea, with shield, sword, and armor. Not sure who the artist is or when it was published.
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian. I get a Finnish vibe from both of them, not surprising because Finland is across the water. The White Witch is depicted accurately as per the book, but Caspian on his cover seems older and meaner. Nikabrik and Trumpkin are at lower left and right, looking more like gnomes than dwarves in their stocking caps. (Why is Nikabrik holding Susan’s Horn? )
