The cover utilizes a high-contrast black-and-white palette. A stark, grainy texture inspired by 1980s film noir posters is applied across the surface to evoke a vintage and mysterious feel. In the center, a shadowy silhouette of a man — presumably Leo — is half-blurred, walking down a desolate, foggy street. Surrounding the figure are fragmented "newspaper clippings" with jagged edges and partially readable text, hinting at crime and a missing person’s case. The background is slightly offset to give a distressed and layered look, emulating old 1980s investigative tabloids. The title, “Missing Leo,” is splashed prominently in bold, iconic lettering, slightly askew, mimicking the ransom-letter effect with an edgy modern twist.

Abstract, overlapping watercolor brushstrokes in soft, airy shades of pale blue and green occupy the bottom third of the cover, creating a serene layered effect. The background is mostly clean white, allowing the colors to stand out subtly. The title, “The Moon and Sixpence,” is elegantly placed in the upper-right corner in deep blue font, while the "English-Chinese" label is situated in the upper-left in a smaller serif font. The Chinese title is slightly lower and centered, creating a visual anchor. Below it, in smaller print, the translator and author details are listed unobtrusively. The publisher’s imprint is minimal and aligned toward the base of the watercolor.
