Description: "This book offers a unique insight into the latest work of internationally acclaimed artist Ben Johnson. The Liverpool Cityscape has been three years in the making and takes in Liverpool's famous skyline from a vantage point high above the River Mersey. Not only does it show the city's existing landmarks as never seen before, but the painting also includes buildings that will be completed or nearing completion during 2008. The artist's hope is that the painting will act as a catalyst for community events and projects to celebrate the city throughout 2008 and beyond."--Jacket.
