A full-color promotional studio photograph of the Irish rock band The Cranberries. In the foreground, lead singer Dolores O'Riordan sits perched on top of a weathered wooden stepladder, leaning slightly forward and looking directly at the camera with a serious expression. She has a very short, dark pixie cut and is wearing a black short-sleeved t-shirt dress, black fishnet tights, and green-and-white lace-up sneakers. Behind her, the other three band members are arranged across the studio space: guitarist Noel Hogan sits on a metal stool in a black t-shirt and blue jeans; drummer Fergal Lawler stands on the left in a white t-shirt, dark trousers, and glasses, leaning against a large studio light stand; bassist Mike Hogan sits on a yellow wooden chair on the right wearing a black long-sleeved shirt. The background reveals the mechanics of the photo studio, including a yellow backdrop panel, a white hanging sheet, a yellow drum kit on the far left, and an Elinchrom power pack on the floor.
