This cover is a design by Jean Cocteau for the album “Le Groupe
des Six” by the group of the same name. This group was a French
group of musicians from the beginning of the first half of the 20th
century. The members were: Georges Auric, Louis Durey, Arthur
Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc, Germaine Tailleferre
and Jean Cocteau who was the artistic representative. Cocteau
created a simple cover with a caricature of all the members in the
centre of the work, where they are intermingled with each other.
