Johnson has taken his tripod and nipped all over the city with a very clever eye, to take photographs of anything and everything that look like letters of the alphabet. The only thing is – these amazing photographs are NOT photographs. They are paintings.
Created in varying medium from watercolour to gouache and charcoal, these exquisite pictures give the eye a run for its money in search of the ABC.
Rest assured, your clever tots will find the letters well before you.
No wonder Alphabet City received a Caldecott Honor Award.
Love it. Add it to your ABC collection.
