The gradient background colors I appropriated from an image found over at Shorpy: The 100-Year-Old Photo Blog that I posted on at my personal blog. I used one of the more iconic shots of Gershwin, a photo by Edward Steichen, as the starting point for the illustrations, extending the black mass formed by the piano through the middle and final piece. The script for the subtitle was taken from a draft card found over at flickr and then traced and pieced together to form the words required.
