Magritte Dreams

The Enchanted Domain by Rene Magritte.

Going through Magritte's paintings, I recalled the cover page of the book
Embracing the wide sky. Not only does it have the bowler hat man but also the sky filling as in The Great Family

Magritte has used his leaf like post as tree and a pigeon in other paintings, if this book cover is inspired from his then it puts not only the repetition to use, but with the reversal of figure and ground and all in the same work is a collage of similar things.
