Bremen-based illustrator/artist Autun Purser created Fantastic Travel Destinations, a collection of illustrations depicting locations from literature as colorful travel posters. The posters were run as an unfortunately unsuccessful campaign on Indiegogo, so we’re glad the that Purser has continued with the project and completed a wonderful collection of posters. The collection comprises of 40 illustrations includes Arrakis from Dune, Yuggoth from H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu Mythos, and locations from J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings. Posters, postcards, and a book comprising the whole collection collection are available to purchase from Purser’s website.
