An artist has created a graphic in the style of the classic cover of The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to pay tribute to the many celebrities, entities and other figures we lost in 2020.

Twitter user @christhebarker shared the image which is made up of 108 different celebrities, entities and other figures. All of the people in the image are notably wearing facemasks in honor of the coronavirus pandemic. The over 1.5 million people worldwide who died from COVID-19 were represented in a series of tally marks in the lower part of the graphic.

Notable figures in the graphic include Kirk Douglas, Chadwick Boseman, Sean Connery, George Floyd, Little Richard, Bill Withers, Kenny Rogers, Olivia de Havilland, Kobe Bryant, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Eddie Van Halen, Carl Reiner and Alex Trebek.

@christhebarker also shared their past Sgt. Pepper graphics for 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016.
