For the cover of the February 10, 2025, issue, the cartoonist Tom Gauld suggests a novel form of light therapy for the winter months: exposure to the warming rays of a work of art. “I love winter on cold, crisp, sunny days, but there’s also a type of dark, wet day when ice-cold rain drips down your collar and you realize you’ve worn shoes with a hole in the sole,” Gauld said. “That’s the sort of day I ought to spend in front of a painting, but, more often, I seem to be one of the unfortunates outside the gallery, in a bad mood and with wet feet.”

People walk inside from the rain into a gallery.
