About this Cinque Terre poster
This poster renders the terrain around Cinque Terre, Italy as a stack of ridgelines — a topographic “joy plot” inspired by the famous Unknown Pleasures album cover. Each line traces the real elevation profile of one slice of the landscape, drawn from digital elevation data, so the peaks, valleys and ridges you see are the actual shape of the ground.
