"Art
images for the cover of Emerging
Infectious Diseases are selected for communication effectiveness,
audience appeal, artistic quality, stylistic continuity, and technical
reproducibility. Art is drawn from many periods (ancient to
contemporary) to "humanize" and enhance the scientific content by
creating order and harmony, showing chaos, revealing truth, raising
consciousness, immortalizing, surprising, fantasizing, illustrating
ideas, stimulating the intellect, and firing the emotions." Left: Edvard Munch, Self-Portrait After the Spanish Flu via Cynical-C |

Taking inspiration from JAMA? It has used art, fine and other, on its cover for years.

Near as I can tell from their respective websites, they both started putting art on their covers in 1997.

JAMA's been doing it for decades, but the journals are pretty mixed about how much of their back issues they have online.
