I’ve just seen a Book lookylikey (a bookylikey) – Terry Pratchett’s Night Watch cover (by Paul Kidby) is exactly like Rembrandt’s painting! I don’t know who this Rembrandt guy is, but he sure ripped-off Pratchett…
Truth is that this kind of scene really lends itself well to Pratchett’s world… I can just imagine him staring at these kinds of paintings, dreaming up new stories… I wonder how many more there are out there?!!?
When I was in Amsterdan I saw the Remdrandt’s painting and I thought “It is inspired in Pratchets works”.
The most surprising is that I thought that before Pratchet’s book was written.
