“Myriorama” might have just overtaken “zootrope” as our favourite word, and for that we’ve got illustrator Tom Gauld to thank. We’re also expressing our gratitude for his _Endless Journeys_ creation – itself a myriorama – which in 21st Century parlance is a series of illustrated cards that can be arranged in thousands of different ways to form numerous visual narratives. _Endless Journey_ clocks up a whopping 479,001,600 different landscapes, formed from 12 beautifully illustrated cards. The series is based on the works of Laurence Sterne, the 18th Century novelist behind _Tristram Shandy_. Tom was commissioned to create work for the Shandy Hall Museum in York, which is currently hosting a show celebrating Sterne’s work. Designed by Brighten the Corners, it’s a charming little project, made even more endearing to our easily amused teenage boy inner child by the addition of a sign bearing the word: “Coxwold.”
The flock were making their way from their summer grazing pastures to the Swiss village of Belalp for the annual Shepherd's Weekend festival, where the most beautiful sheep are awarded prizes.
We are pleased to present a new limited edition issue of the bestselling myriorama by Tom Gauld, inspired by the works of Laurence Sterne.
