A Basket of Roses Arrived at My Mailbox
I was pretty dang thrilled to learn the other night that a friend had decided that I should have his silver vinyl, limited edition of 1000, reissue of Power, Corruption & Lies (I have always loved Peter Saville’s cover designs and Factory Records) which was released in 2017 in conjunction with the True Faith art exhibition at the Manchester Art Gallery.
Saville’s cover design for PCL is a reproduction of the painting "A Basket of Roses" by French artist Henri Fantin-Latour, which is part of the National Gallery's permanent collection in London.
And so a slim, square package arrived at my mailbox!
