Coro Angelicus

Inside the image.

A square, densely packed illustration in blue, white, black and yellow. At the centre is a large, roughly circular yellow form resembling an eye or medallion, marked with black dots, curved lines and small architectural-looking shapes. Around it, layered feathered and flowing forms radiate outward. A dark, shaggy shape with a single yellow-ringed eye sits above the central disc; further eye-like motifs appear among the surrounding feathers and folds. The imagery is crowded and partly symmetrical, but its irregular contours and overlapping details keep it from feeling strictly balanced.

Pale blue and white shapes fill the edges and background, with fine dark outlines suggesting feathers, curls, wings or plumes. Yellow and olive tones gather around the centre and fade into the cooler colours. The forms overlap across nearly the whole cover, leaving little open space; some are cut off by the square frame. The drawing has a hand-rendered appearance, with dense ink-like hatching, curved marks and finely worked patterns. The title sits over the upper portion of the illustration: “Côr Godre'r Garth” appears in small white lettering at upper left, “CORO” in blue capitals near the top centre, and the much larger black serif capitals “ANGELICUS” stretch across the upper right and centre.
