My favorite cover

Favorite
 
 
Time and again, readers turn to People for our take on the defining moments in pop culture—and this year, a major story was the death of one of the greatest movie stars of all time, Elizabeth Taylor. The iconic shot selected for the cover from the archives of famed photographer Philippe Halsman, taken when Taylor was just 16 years old, reminded fans of the beauty and grace that would often become overshadowed by her much-documented, tumultuous personal life. With few words needed, this People cover provided a truly worthy farewell to a legend.
 
Critique: I think the picture is well placed I like how they over lapped her and left the title of the magazine behind her instead of changing where it was or putting it in front of her to where you wouldn't be able to see her face. They could of written a little bit more on the cover to draw attention or make it more interesting when people see it looks like there's only one story or the magazine has to only do with one person. The yellow makes the magazine pop out and the words are nicely placed around the portrait of Elizabeth Taylor. For the most part I think they chose a nice design and lay out for this magazine.
