The New York Times Magazine: 2020 in 52 stunning covers

Last year, The New York Times Magazine published a weekly video series called Behind the Cover, which gave readers a behind-the-scenes look at the team's cover-design process.

“We’ve just wrapped the season, and we decided to take a look back at all the covers we put out in a profoundly eventful year, shaped by a cascade of world-changing events that changed the way we worked too” notes the team.
