First the Italian edition of Vanity Fair and now
Time magazine. Time has dedicated the front cover of its 29 July issue to “The People’s Pope”.
But only the front covers of the European, Asian and South American editions.
The U.S. edition has dedicated its front cover the Trayvon Martin case involving the tragic shooting of the young 17-year old, for which George Zimmerman is being tried.
The cover of the other editions, shows a close-up profile picture of Francis who is smiling and seems to be looking out of a window.
His profile image is set against a shadowy background with a light illuminating the outline of his face and his white vestments.
The subtitle says Francis is redefining the papacy with his humility and candour and asks whether he will be able to turn Latin America’s destiny around.
