People seem to forget that this is what the artist felt about the album and translated onto canvas

 

You might not like it, she might not like it but that’s art eh it’s subjective 

 

The only one I’m not feeling is paradise but  the other two I likeeeeee

 

The NFR one is like misty ocean waves, I dig it

[DCooper 37,061]

I don't like the Paradise or NFR covers but I adore the Born to Die one, I can't believe people don't like that one!! It's gorgeous

maybe this has been in the works since 2019

or maybe he was just inspired by paradise and his estate (if he has one) lent the painting to interscope idk

 

edit: it could also be a different matthew wong since that name is fairly common

edit 2: retracting my first edit

 

I saw he died by suicide at 35 years old, during his peak. he had tourette's syndrome and depression.  there's a exhibition of his paintings going on called "blue view" at the art gallery of ontario settled to be viewed alongside picasso's blue period paintings

 

I think the painting chosen for paradise might be from the same time he painted this one called "the realm of appearences".

I really like his style and reminds me so much of gustav klimt, van gogh and ofc picasso himself

Exactly that! None of them quite catch the vibe of the album, but the Born To Die one is the only artwork that kinda goes in that direction. Also regardless of what one might think of these covers as pieces of art, it's also the prettiest one imho.

I don't know how long I can do this, he said. I think the universe has different plans for me & we sat there in silence & I thought to myself that this is the thing we all come to & this is the thing we all fight & if we are lucky enough to lose, our lives become beautiful with mystery again & I sat there silent because that is not something that can be said.
