Guy Fleming, Revisited

There is now a website (link here) dedicated to the life and work of Guy Fleming, the artist and book designer responsible for, among other things, the dust jacket art for the first American edition of One Hundred Years of Solitude. I was delighted to recognize some book art I hadn't realized was Fleming's, including this handsome trio of Willa Cather covers for Vintage Books.
In addition to his book jacket designs, the website features a bio of Fleming and reproductions of his paintings and other artworks.

I’m glad that his daughter is sharing the news (me too) — I’m going to make a post for Monday. I had the same reaction when I saw Death Comes for the Archbishop and the Rise of Modern Europe covers — I didn’t know they were his.
