3. Codes
Technical codes
In this magazine cover, the
lighting is fairly dim but still
adequate to make out all the
features of the cover model. This
related to the dim subject matter
of the headline: “Lykking her
wounds.”
Symbolic codes
The cover model’s eyes make her
appear slightly puzzled, and her
open bottom lip creates an
invitational tone to the image.
She is resting her chin on her
hand, making her seem
contemplative.
