Top 10 Art-Influenced Album Covers
Some music album covers are heavily influenced by famous paintings and you can see striking similarities if you check out the original arts.This list isn't an accusation of rip-offs.
The Top Ten
1 Tango in the Night - Fleetwood Mac
2 Turbulent Indigo - Joni Mitchell
This cover (1994) is a redux of Vincent Van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear (1889).
3 She’s So Unusual - Cyndi Lauper
On the image you see the front cover. But the art I mean is on the back cover - there's a little girl and on the soles of her shoes is Vincent Van Gogh’s Starry Night (1889).
I think it's a very interesting idea.
4 The Last of the Mohicans - Bow Wow Wow
5 Movement - New Order
6 Rum, Sodomy & the Lash - The Pogues
7 De Stijl - The White Stripes
8 Liebe ist für alle da - Rammstein
9 Lungs - Florence + the Machine
10 By All Means Necessary - Boogie Down Productions
The pose of KRS-One on this cover is a reference to a Malcolm X photo.
The Contenders
11 The Pick of Destiny - Tenacious D
Based on Michelangelo's "The Creation of Adam".
12 The Velvet Underground & Nico - The Velvet Underground and Nico
13 Zahltag - Gio
Based on the Lady Justice statue in Frankfurt, Germany. Only that on here, she is decapitated.
14 American Life - Madonna
Based on the infamous photograph of Che Guevara.
