Or you might find one or more picture types embedded in APIC frames in an ID3 tagged track.
From the ID3v2.3 / ID3v2.4 documentation:
Vorbis Comment documentation seems to suggest also using the APIC types.
In browsing my classical music collection, of course, composer takes precedence over artist. I'm pushing a rock up a hill on this one.

PS - I imagine the ID3 committee was thinking of Douglas Adams ("So long and thanks for all the fish") when they added Picture type $11.
