Album Covers- The Beatles

the Beatles 

in this cover of sgt peppers lonely heart club band it fits into the surreal influences that were  extremely popular at the time. here the Beatles are surrounded by famous historical people implying that they are making history with their music. 

this is slightly unconventional as usually there would only be the band or artist of the front but here they are surrounded by others suggesting their branding as a band is so well known that they can be surrounded by others and they stand out. 

despite the fact they are standing amongst others they still stand out in their bright military uniforms and the name Beatles is written in flowers, giving the album a slightly strange eery feel as flower letters are clear reminders of funarals opening the question is this representing the end of the beateles?
