Analysis of a double page spread

This double page spread is from the magazine, NME.
The main focus of the article is the image of the artist on the right hand side, the image covers the whole right hand side of the page so this tells us she is important. Her tartan shirt, which is normally warn my men, this shows her masculinity however she is stood with her hands on her hips with her underarm showing, on the right arm you can see her tattoo, this tells us she is quite rebellious and along with her pose it suggests she is strong and demanding attention.
The artists eye line is at the same with the main focus of the left hand side page, the large text at the top of the page, this could be to represent her saying it. The font looks good and attracts the readers eye as it stands out well against the simple white background. Also the artists tartan top matches the colour scheme as only black, red and white colours are used.
i think this page works well as the text stands out well with the image dominating the right hand page this tells us she is a dominant figure. The simple background makes the article easy on the eye which appeals greatly to me as from the customer point of view i wouldn't want to read something which is hard on the eye and difficult to read.
