A highly specced work of art from an internationally-acclaimed London-based artist - it includes a fold out print of the entire map.
The brainchild of Canadian-born, London-based artist, Mychael Barratt, London
Map of Days is a miscellany of facts and fictions arranged around the events and
characters of our capital city. Based upon an original and very limited eight-plate
etching by Mychael, which was shown at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in
2015, the book features 366 date specific references to events or people throughout
London’s history. Highlights include: 17 December 1849 the first bowler hat was
created by Thomas and William Bowlers; 3 December 1976 Pink Floyd’s inflatable pig
breaks free from Battersea Power Station; 11 November 1920 Cenotaph on Whitehall
designed by Edwin Lutyens is unveiled on Armistice Day.
By tweeting each element and its story on a daily basis from January 2015, Mychael’s
work has gained an international following for his light-hearted look at the The Big
Smoke’s fascinating history.
