Interesting to see how many book covers have the same image. Guess it goes to show that a great picture is worth more than a 1000 words.

From WinUpBird's http://windupbird.stumbleupon.com blog: why shouldn't fine works of art be recycled??

well you know what they say, there is nothing new under the sun.

To be fair, in the cases of Mary Magdalene, Josephine Bonaparte, and Anne Boleyn, these are iconic images that would immediately convey, to the reader, what the books were about. Most of the historical portraits were used to illustrate what era the novel was set in- immediately invoking a time and place, emotionally and historically. In many of the other cases I agree that it is just publishers being cost efficient and using stock photos. Interesting collection nonetheless.

So much for originality... so lazy. Makes you wonder about whats inside those duplicate covers.
