EDITORS COMMENTS
is the captivating jacket illustration for Edgar Rice Burroughs' science fiction novel, first published in 1921. This iconic image transports us to the fantastical world of Barsoom, or Mars, as imagined by Burroughs. The illustration showcases Thuvia, a noble and beautiful Martian princess, dressed in an elegant, flowing gown adorned with intricate gold patterns. Her long, dark hair cascades down her back, framing her regal features. Her expressive eyes convey a sense of determination and strength, reflecting her role as a key character in the story. In the background, we see the rugged Martian landscape, with its towering cliffs, vast deserts, and towering structures. The red Martian sky is illuminated by a brilliant sun, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene. This stunning illustration perfectly encapsulates the adventurous spirit and imaginative world-building that defines Burroughs' "Mars Series." First published in 1921, "Thuvia, Maid of Mars" is the seventh novel in the series and follows the journey of John Carter, a Civil War veteran who is transported to Mars and becomes embroiled in the politics and intrigue of the Martian civilization. Thuvia, the princess of Helium, plays a crucial role in Carter's adventures, and their relationship adds a romantic element to the story. This jacket illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of Burroughs' work and the power of the imagination to transport us to far-off worlds. It continues to captivate readers and inspire artists, writers, and dreamers alike, making it an essential piece of science fiction history.
