The Award is open to illustrators, student or professional, who have not previously been commissioned by The Folio Society, with the aim of finding, platforming and supporting new illustration talent from around the world.
The Folio Society is celebrating its 75th anniversary by winning each of the four categories in which they were nominated at the 2022 BBD&P Awards.
Gérard DuBois has won in the Book Illustration category and has been awarded the Moira Gemmill Illustrator of the Year Prize for his work on The Folio Society's edition of The Road at this year's V&A Illustration Awards. Judge Posy Simmonds described DuBois's stunning illustrations as ‘magnificent, rich, poignant and melancholic’.
