Review: Nel libro per i collezionisti e amanti della musica. Review: There have been many books published about the work of the legendary Hipgnosis design studio, responsible for iconic (and for once that word is entirely appropriate) cover designs for Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel and others, but most of them are just collections of the actual pictures. This one actually goes into a lot of detail about the stories behind the creation of the pictures - in addition to including a lot of the pictures, both the completed versions and the original sketches and rejected designs. It's a fascinating read - highly recommended to anyone familiar with the work of Hipgnosis who wants to find out more about how these designs came about. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (45) | | Dimensions | 23.4 x 15.7 x 2.5 cm | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 0500252378 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0500252376 | | Item weight | 880 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 320 pages | | Publication date | 10 February 2022 | | Publisher | Thames and Hudson Ltd | ## Images ![Through the Prism: Untold rock stories from the Hipgnosis archive - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51LmgdoHxCS.jpg) ![Through the Prism: Untold rock stories from the Hipgnosis archive - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61o2mKsZFTL.jpg) ![Through the Prism: Untold rock stories from the Hipgnosis archive - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61FQf16BBfL.jpg) ![Through the Prism: Untold rock stories from the Hipgnosis archive - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612mQ-eJeKL.jpg) ![Through the Prism: Untold rock stories from the Hipgnosis archive - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Ra0Ig+OhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by M***O on 25 September 2025* Nel libro per i collezionisti e amanti della musica. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***G on 20 March 2022* There have been many books published about the work of the legendary Hipgnosis design studio, responsible for iconic (and for once that word is entirely appropriate) cover designs for Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Peter Gabriel and others, but most of them are just collections of the actual pictures.

It's a fascinating read - highly recommended to anyone familiar with the work of Hipgnosis who wants to find out more about how these designs came about. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***A on 15 October 2023* If you happen to be a rock music fan of the seventies, this book is right for you. Sleeve design was so important as vynil and the music itself. Musicians invested in building great image hiring Hipgnosis as a creative and production force that made records unique and unforgettable. Once you start reading you won’t be able to stop. Incredible stories behind each project are shared by Powell. A great companion to the recent documentary about Hipgnosis “Squaring the Circle”. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/317814460-through-the-prism-untold-rock-stories-from-the-hipgnosis-archive](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/317814460-through-the-prism-untold-rock-stories-from-the-hipgnosis-archive) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
