This was an interesting choice. Very minimalist, but it also showed off just how powerful PS1-era Square really was in Japan. They didn't need a bunch of elaborate box art.

VI is another one whose art I personally like, probably due to the selected colours, but objectively I'd say it's worse that X's.
Anyway, here's X's European box art:
