Geography: Old Map Detail
I just liked the look of this detail of a map of Regent's Park from 1859. Maps can be beautiful.
Found here via Things Magazine.

In his article "For the Record" about David Stone Martin in Today's Inspiration Leif Peng says "From my research on the net, it appears that DSM went on to create approximately 400 album covers!". I've posted before about that great article where you'll find some fine examples of David Stone Martin's album cover art.
Peng has also written other articles on Stone Martin making it clear that though being a very productive album cover artist Stone Martin was not only that.
