In 1981 Canadian rock band Rush, releases what would become their most successful album ever, Moving Pictures. Everyone knows the classic tracks such as Tom Sawyer, Limelight and YYZ. However most people probably don't know that the cover art was photographed in the heart of downtown Toronto.
History:
Rush’s long time sleeve artist Hugh Syme was tasked with designing the iconic Moving Pictures artwork.
“At the time they gave me the [album] title, I pretty immediately knew what I wanted to do with the cover”,
“Our aspiration was to make this look like a big deal”, he explains. “I would have liked to go to Europe, to have gone somewhere that looked like a centuries old art gallery, but we [ended up using] the neo-classical architecture of the legislative building of Toronto’s Queen’s Park. There were three arches, which was thematically pretty cool.” - Hugh Syme
Moving Pictures. It is a triple entendre; the front depicts movers who are carrying pictures. On the side, people are shown crying because the pictures passing by are emotionally "moving". Finally, the back cover has a film crew making a motion (moving) picture of the whole scene.
The cover was photographed by Deborah Samuel outside the Ontario Legislative Building at Queen's Park, Toronto. The pictures that are being moved are the band's Starman logo featured on the reverse cover of 2112 (1976), one of the Dogs Playing Poker paintings entitled A Friend in Need, and a painting that shows Joan of Arc being burned at the stake. The film crew on the back cover actually shot the scene, from which a single frame was used for the cover. This was revealed to Rush concertgoers several years later when the still image was shown on the stage projector which suddenly came to life as a film sequence.
The estimated artwork cost $9,500 to produce. Anthem Records refused to cover the entire bill, leaving the band to pay for the rest.
