Just finished this private commission for a fan of @PhilipPullman’s #bookofdust novels. It's inspired by a beautiful passage near the end of The Secret Commonwealth, where Lyra enters the City of the Moon. I love these books too, so it was a treat to illustrate this scene.
The Lyran Guards were the second Lyran brigade mustered after the formation of the Lyran Commonwealth.
