Website description: "Vogue’s annual Power issue features the actors, musicians, and personalities at the top of the cultural heap, and in 2013 no one held more social currency than Vogue’s March cover girl, Beyoncé. For his spare but glamorous portrait, Patrick Demarchelier seems to capture all of the singer, business mogul, fashion icon, wife, and, mother’s multi-hyphenated talent and beauty in a single snap. It’s a picture as formidable, yet likeable, as “Queen Bey” herself."

My critique: I think that this magazine cover is very appealing. The cover is very simplistic and show the beauty of a glamour shot. I don't like the way they positioned her body. The position of her body looks very awkward and UN natural. Since this issue of vogue is called the "power issue" they made a very good choice of picking Beyonce. Since vogue used Beyonce for the cover all of her fans are of course gonna buy one of the magazines with her on it. Vogue obviously thought this one through. Vogue made this cover very simplistic but yet very glamours at the same time. By putting Beyonce on the power issue they are trying to portray Beyonce as a power women because of how much success she has had over the years.
