Unknowing that Dominique is a dude's name over there, I had thought he was a woman that Trondheim was in this rendered relationship with the whole way through. Having Hérody albums of some vintage, I knew that the "she" on the cover and every page should have been maybe a decade older but went with it.
Then, upon ensuring the geography of this album's creation for my shelving, I realized that Lewis had just enlisted a probable favorite creator male who hadn't worked a bd in many years to paint either a wife, lover or hypothetical woman- which took away all the intimacy I had falsely read into the actual female doing the art.
