The Look of Love

What happened between this


Cover Art by Gerald Gregg

and this:


Cover Art by Robert McGinnis

My post Look of Love (inspired by the wonderful book of Jennifer McKnight-Trontz) shows you how romance covers are changed the from the '20 to the end of the twenty century. Wonderful covers (and many of them so you are warned the post is heavy!) by the biggest names of Graphic Design like Geralg Gregg, Barye Phillips, Bob Stanley, Robert Maguire, Lou Marchetti, Robert McGinnis and many others. Enjoy!

You are killing one of the most sought cover of every time! But you make me laugh!

I think that Robert McGinnis reached his apex with this cover, he was free to do what he wanted. I always find quite interesting that she is all dressed and with make up and he is totally naked...
