Story & Background

The iconic cover design of *Led Zeppelin II* is a true work of graphic art, born from an idea by designer David Juniper. The base is an old black and white photograph of a German World War I air force division, known as the "Jasta Division". Juniper superimposed onto the original faces in the photo the photographic portraits of the band members – Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham – along with their manager Peter Grant and tour manager Richard Cole. Curiously, among the altered faces, it is said that there is also that of bluesman Blind Willie Johnson, a hidden homage to the band's musical roots. This collage, then treated with a sepia filter for an aged effect, lent the album a mysterious and powerful aura, perfectly in line with the raw and revolutionary energy of the music contained within, further solidifying the distinctive aesthetic and visual impact that contributed to the record's worldwide success since its original release in 1969.
