Paris vs New York, a tally of two cities — A friendly visual match between those two cities, as seen by a Parisian-based-and-lover on New York: details, cliches and contradictions. This way, please.
Very nice hand-drawn typography work by Jon Contino based on the lyrics from a classic sea shanty “Blood Red Roses”:
“My clothes are all in pawn
Go down you blood red roses, go down
And it’s mighty draughty around Cape Horn
Go down you blood red roses, go down
Oh, you pinks and posies
Go down you blood red roses, go down
It’s round Cape Horn we’ve got to go
Chasing whales through ice and snow
Oh my old mother she wrote to me
My darling son come home from sea
Oh it’s one more pull and that will do
For we’re the bullies to kick her through”
