'Ombria in Shadow' by Patricia McKillip had fantastic character portraits. I don't have it with me to quote, but I can still remember some of the more poignant images because of the way they were painted.
The new cover for the book is just as lovely as the one you linked to, ( http://images.art.com/images/PRODUCTS/Regular/10089000/10089736.jpg ), and I know how you feel. I'm stuck with the vague photograph image cover, which isn't bad, but isn't particularly interesting either.
But while McKillip writer beautifully, the last chapter had me a bit lost. It felt like a bit of a rushed ending in some ways.
