The Great Gatsby Cover Analysis

My cover illustration for “The Great Gatsby” isn't very complex, although it has deep meanings. The emotions behind this cover art show disappointment and uncertainty in Gatsby’s heart and the pain he has endured through the years of Daisy’s absence. The right side of the face shows the way he hid his search for Daisy behind these huge parties at his mansion. The burning money shows how rich Gatsby is and his disregard for money when it comes to Daisy. He has spent endless nights and hours trying to gain her attention with his green light by the lake and his overpopulated parties. He says that he throws these parties in hopes of her wandering in one day, resulting in him seeing her again. The big mansion on the cover is Gatsby’s beautiful home
