UNDATED calendar, works for any year and coilbound.
Artists looking for inspiration – and anyone who appreciates stunning, handcrafted photography – will find much to love in this calendar.
We celebrate Sir John Herschel – scientist, innovator, and the father of cyanotype. Each month features a carefully selected artwork created using alternative photographic processes that owe much to Herschel’s discoveries. From cyanotypes to anthotypes, these images honour his spirit of experimentation and his lasting influence on photographic history.
Sir John Herschel (1792–1871) was a brilliant polymath who not only introduced the cyanotype process in the early 1840s but also coined photographic terms such as negative, positive and snapshot. His collaborations with early photographers and his scientific curiosity paved the way for processes that continue to captivate artists today.
Whether you use this calendar for reflection, planning, or creative inspiration, let it remind you of the beauty that comes from discovery, experimentation, and the art of working with light.
