I can't imagine a more beautiful cover for my book.
The design evolved over time.

This was the initial cover rendering. I found it very disappointing, frankly. It reminded me of something from a 1956 Reader's Digest Condensed Book.

I suggested that the cover might want to deep focus on a body part: eyebrows, fingers, etc. This concept shows a focus on a dancer's painted feet.

Everyone felt more mystery was desirable. Here, dancers swirling in darkness create a sort of abstract of motion.

Nothing seemed right. Amazingly, the final cover had been tossed out early on. The stone that builders rejected...
PS: Does the face look familiar? Perhaps this will refresh your memory.
