Discworld and Josh Kirby

In a previous post I looked at some of my favourite Discworld covers, the 'Collectors Library'; those clothbound hardbacks illustrated by Joe McClaren and originated as a series style by Gollancz, the owners of the hardback publishing rights to roughly the first half of the series, and completed by Doubleday, who own the hardback rights to the rest.I wondered if this artwork which serves so beautifully for its current purpose might also, hypothetically, be reworked to serve the commercial needs

Hiti

हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
