Pictured is the cove for Tamsyn Muir’s ‘Harrow the Ninth’, featuring a woman dressed in black, wearing a pale skeletal exoskeleton and a white cape. Visible over her left shoulder is the hilt of a sword. She has her right hand raised at hip level and looks to be manipulating a blue light at her side. Behind her, skeletons look to be marching.
