Santana – Abraxas 1970

"Santana – Abraxas" is a psychedelic rock album cover created by artist Abdul Mati Klarwein in 1970. The cover art features a vibrant and eclectic composition, with elements of surrealism and spiritual symbolism. A central figure, a reclining woman with dark skin, dominates the canvas. Surrounding her are a variety of colorful and fantastical objects, including a winged angel, an elephant, a sunflower, and a drum. Klarwein's use of rich colors, intricate details, and striking contrasts create a sense of both beauty and unease, reflecting the album's exploration of Latin American and spiritual influences. This iconic album cover has become a symbol of the psychedelic rock movement of the 1970s.
