José Afonso — Cantigas do Maio album cover
- This album cover was more than just packaging; it was a visual statement during a time of political unrest in Portugal. The colorful rainbow hand on the cover represented freedom and change, making it a powerful symbol during the dictatorship period.
- It's an example of how graphic design can be used as a form of protest and cultural expression.
- The bold, simple design was a break from traditional design and became iconic for its connection to the revolutionary spirit of the time.
