The Art of Discworld

The Art of Discworld is a descriptive book of the world of the Discworld as portrayed in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. It showcases the art of Paul Kidby with descriptions of characters and locations by Pratchett and some details of the development of the art by Kidby himself.

The book details most major lead characters from the Discworld books and gives them background information, including how Pratchett visualises them and the inspiration behind them.

The cover shows the Mona Ogg, a famous painting by Leonard of Quirm, which is a parody of the Mona Lisa based on Nanny Ogg.

Famous quotes containing the word art:

    “Thou art not fair, for all thy red and white,
    For all those rosy ornaments in thee.
    Thou art not sweet, though made of mere delight”
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
