What's behind some of the music's most famous covers? [gallery]

In addition to the success of artists and bands, some albums have become famous simply for having iconic covers, with images and photographs that have come to be recognized worldwide.

Seeking a new perspective, artist Harvezt selected precisely these images that are so familiar to us to change the point of view, showing what the “backstage” of each of the covers would look like.

Thus was born the series "The Dark Side of the Covers", in reference to one of the most famous covers of all time (after all, who doesn't recognize Pink Floyd's album?) And to the dark and mysterious side of our satellite.

So the artist takes a fresh look at the image of the famous baby swimming on the cover of Nirvana, as well as revealing what would be on the other side of the famous Abbey Road, where the Beatles cross.
