Wonderful Illustrations Of Books Placed In The Locations They Are Set In



A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway, set in the cafés of St Germain in Paris



Illustrator Seth Armstrong and writer Johnny Davis have come up with a set of illustrations that show where each work of travel literature is set in.



This creative project was commissioned by the online retailer Mr Porter, and shows us that travel has a lasting influence on our lives.



Have a look at some of these wonderful works below, or read the story in full on Mr Porter.
