Purple Rain LP Poster

Does anyone have an Xplanation for some of the peculiarities about the poster that came with the original PR album? Mainly, why is there a 2nd staircase superimposed over the 1st one & why is Prince not really in the picture? (If you look around P's edges, you'll see that he was added into the picture).

Yeah! He's huge in that poster. At 1st glance, you think that he's just standing in the foreground...but nope!
Napolean complex, maybe?
