“It’s a celebration of love–it’s just that simple,” the artist and designer Frank Viva says of his cover for the June 27th issue. Viva originally conceived of a silhouetted couple a few years ago as a celebration of the Supreme Court ruling that struck down the discriminatory Defense of Marriage Act. (See the first iteration of the image below.) He returned to the thought in the wake of the massacre in Orlando.
