CRYING CHERUB

After Van Halen’s guitarist Eddie Van Halen passed in October 2020, artist Margo Z. Nahas created a slightly modified rendition of her cover illustration for the band's popular album, "1984." In this version, she added tears to the little angel’s eyes. These details change his facial expression and give the image a somber tone. “I felt compelled to share the little rebel angel grieving, along with the millions of Van Halen fans around the world,” the artist says.

Fine prints of the original and new versions of the "1984" illustration are available at https://www.vanhalen1984.com/

The story behind the making of the artwork is featured on the first volume of the "1984." Get the complete book collection at www.andjusticeforart.bigcartel.com
