Aesthetica magazine contents page analysis
In the contents page of an average Aesthetica magazine, the
masthead into used but where the front cover sell lines were lacking are now in
much further depth. There is a number attached to each of 10 images which ass
have a short description underneath them . turning to the first page and seeing
pictures and detail of each one will be
alluring in its organisation. However a new title is used ; ’10 to see’, which was
not included on the front in bold statement.
At first glance the images all vary in colour and dimension
which will attract a range of people who are interested in art. There is no
letter form the editor, nor is there any mention of anything but the artists
work and what it involves as most people will only read art magazines for that
reason ; to make their own interpretations. Similarly, no articles are given prominence
over others, much like how the cover is not favouring any particular theme or
artist, the magazine represents all. Half the page is made up of images and the
structure of the magazine is laid out immediately with where to turn to
depending on the reader and not what the magazine wants your attention to go to
the most. The font used is sans serif, similar to their front covers, which
continues a theme of simplicity.
Its all very structured with a divide directly between the descriptions
and the photos however some photos are larger than others which could be a subtle
point by the magazine at where they want your attention. Besides the colours in
the magazine, there is no background and the text is all written in black, overall
making the magazine appear formal. The language that has been used is formal and
serious with little element of editorial style.
