TIME, basically, is a word magazine, but we also take pride in our pictures, most particularly our cover paintings-such as Robert Vickrey's portrait of Senator William Fulbright on this week's cover.

The scrollwork of flowers and birds that decorates the wall panel by the door of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee room is the creation of still another artist whom millions of Americans know by style, if not always by name...
...painting of the President for this cover is a first for TIME in that it was done in collaboration by two artists: Peter Kurd, who has painted a number of covers for us, and his wife, Henriette Wyeth Hurd, whose portrait of her brother, famed Artist Andrew Wyeth, was our Christmas cover in 1963.

A diplomat to Henry VII, he brought as a gift a portrait of St. George by Raphael...
...gave up a career as New York's style-setting dance and music critic to write seven popular, thinly fictionalized accounts (Nigger Heaven, The Tattooed Countess) of his own Prohibition-era bohemian ways, at 52 launched yet another career as a renowned, and certainly magnanimous, portrait photographer (he gave his work to his subjects free of charge), all the while amassing enough Negro manuscripts and phonograph records from his old uptown haunts to establish the U.S.'s largest collection of Harlem's home-grown art at Yale University; in Manhattan...
