Book: Cityscape: Ben Johnson's Liverpool This stunning book showcases the work of internationally acclaimed artist Ben Johnson. "Cityscape: Ben Johnson's Liverpool" has been three years in the making and takes in Liverpool's famous skyline from a vantage point high above the River Mersey. It encompasses several thousand individual buildings and has taken Johnson and up to 11 assistants 24,000 person hours so far.
"Cityscape: Ben Johnson's Liverpool" is both a breathtaking portrait of the city of Liverpool and part of Johnson's magnificent World Panoramas series. The artist works to the scale of a Renaissance painter, producing what "The Guardian" has called 'almost impossibly ambitious cityscapes' from around the world.
