Eldfell lava field
East of the town, the 1973 lava forms a broad, rough area where streets simply stop. On the poster, the sudden edge between street grid and lava is striking.

Map
Heimaey is the only inhabited island of the Vestmannaeyjar, the Westman Islands, off the south coast of Iceland. Its outline is irregular and full of contrasts: steep cliffs in the north, the town and harbour in the middle, and two volcanic cones, Eldfell and Helgafell, rising to the east. From above, the town's orderly streets press right up against fields of young lava.
In January 1973 a fissure opened on the edge of town and formed Eldfell. The eruption buried hundreds of houses and forced a rapid evacuation, and lava flowed toward the harbour entrance. Crews pumped seawater onto the advancing front to slow it, and the harbour survived. The new lava added land to the island and left the harbour better sheltered than before.
A Heimaey map poster places a compact Icelandic town beside a landscape that is, geologically, very new. The harbour, the grid of streets and the rounded forms of the volcanoes make for a composition with unusual tension. The island is also known for its large puffin colonies and for the festival held each August in the Herjólfsdalur valley.
East of the town, the 1973 lava forms a broad, rough area where streets simply stop. On the poster, the sudden edge between street grid and lava is striking.
The harbour lies in a narrow inlet on the north side of town, protected by cliffs on one side and the newer lava on the other.
A grassy valley on the western side of the island, enclosed by steep slopes, is where the annual festival takes place. It forms a distinct open bowl on the map.

From wanem Heimaey
Heimaey has a remarkable story of survival, and many Icelanders have personal connections to the eruption and the return that followed. For visitors, the island is remembered for puffins, ferries and walking up a volcano that did not exist barely half a century ago.
You can set your own title and subtitle, add the year of a visit or a family name, and edit the coordinates line. Pick Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand; Noir suits the dark lava well. Download HD files or order a printed poster.
