peter Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Just noticed in Arianne Phillips’ Instagram, when she posted the album cover, she tagged Giovanni Bianco ... hmm ... Weren’t we wondering whether he was involved this go-round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVX Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I don't mind her name between the brows, I just wish the font was less... basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael. Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Really like the poster with the blonde hair. I feel like it's quite subversive and confronting. Almost like she's a leader for a political revolution or something. The blonde hair/deluxe cover is still my favorite too. I might have to get the vinyl just for the cover.

Madonna seems to like that amateurish touch by stan fans like Aldo Diaz. Maybe she is completely right with it and it connects her with a younger audience who has different taste levels.

Voguerista Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I love the official covers too. I appreciate some of Aldo's art but he should have left her eyes alone the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VogueMusic Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 19 hours ago, Shaun said: Super Deluxe in higher quality: Love this cover. Not basic at all. Love the colors of that patterned background, the black dress, and the red guitar. The lighting. The classic hiding of face with only Madonna eyes piercing into your soul. And the black hair!!! And she's posing with an instrument. Finally. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelgirl Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 So far, the best thing about this era is the visual aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wherelifebegins Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I love the Portuguese azulejos (the patterned blue tiles) reference in the Super Deluxe cover. Really like all the covers, but the Deluxe cover is my favourite. It's timeless, dramatic and, simply a beautiful image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think this is real then your need to check yoself. It's completely fake and has the songwriters on the back with massive logos and not even the right copyright info.

Gaudet Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Hey Everyone, Wondering if there has been any visual reference to this Madame X: Or if there ever will be - not compulsory of course. John Singer Sargent's portrait of Virginie Amelie Avegno Gautreau, 1884. At The Met, if anyone is interested. By the way, so far I am liking what I am seeing. Good vibes this era.

Ciao I brought that same topic up recently. Wanting that to be the album cover. Hoping an homage shows up in the album booklet at least. Madonna has to be aware of the famous painting given her love of art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
