Tides of Memory

Georgie Stewart brings coastal Italy into luminous focus for Penguin and Kaitlyn Hill.

For Ancient History Between Us, Georgie transforms the Italian coast into a landscape of memory and possibility. The cover drifts across coral cliffs, sun-drenched seas, and hidden corners, reflecting Cammie Lovett and West Jacobs’ reunion after years apart.

Commissioned by Penguin for Kaitlyn Hill’s forthcoming novel, the artwork threads through Capri, Naples, and Pompeii, anchoring the story’s emotional journey in colour and place. 

Georgie’s palette - dreamy, saturated and warm, captures both the echoes of childhood and the stirrings of renewed intimacy.
