Biblical Magi
The package design of "Christmas in the Heart" is credited to Coco Shinomiya who had designed Dylan's previous album "Together Through Life". The album's cover, an illustration of a sleigh ride in a snowy landscape, is from an antique print. The back cover, an illustration of the Biblical Magi, is by artist Edwin Fotheringham. The inner sleeves feature a black-and-white photo by Leonard Freed of four musicians wearing Santa Claus suits as well as a drawing by Olivia De Berardinis of pinup Bettie Page dressed as Mrs. Claus.
