Photos from the Elephant House

[#1]

For the dedicated Edward Gorey fanatic, check out this collection of "still photos and publicity images for Christopher Seufert's upcoming documentary project about the late illustrator Edward Gorey. Shot with him between 1996 and his death in April, 2000." There are 130 pictures in the collection, including a vibrant array of colored glass bottles, a backlog of reading matter and an artfully cluttered countertop. Knowing that some these photos were taken just before the author's death yields a particularly poignant quality. Found via the indispensable BoingBoing.
