The island
Santorini is the remaining rim of a volcano. From above, the main island forms a crescent that wraps around a large, flooded caldera, with Therasia and a smaller islet completing the ring to the west. In the centre of the water sits Nea Kameni, a dark, young volcanic island that formed in eruptions over the past few centuries.
The inner edge of the crescent is a steep cliff, and the island's best-known villages cling to its top. Fira, the main town, and Oia at the northern tip are dense clusters of lanes and stairways overlooking the caldera. The outer side slopes gently to the east and south, towards farmland, vineyards and long dark beaches. The airport and most of the roads are on this side.
A Santorini map poster captures one of the most dramatic outlines in the Mediterranean. The Bronze Age eruption that shaped much of the caldera buried the settlement at Akrotiri, on the southern tip, and preserved its buildings and wall paintings under ash. On the map, the curve of the island and the empty water inside it make a striking composition in black and white.

A young volcanic island in the middle of the caldera, formed by eruptions over recent centuries. It appears as a dark, compact shape in the empty water.
Tight networks of lanes and steps run along the rim of the cliff. From above they look like fine lines tracing the inner edge of the island.

Why Santorini
Santorini is where many people get married, spend a honeymoon or watch a sunset they still talk about. The crescent and caldera make an image that is instantly recognisable, and a monochrome print keeps it graphic rather than postcard-like.
Add names and a date to the title and subtitle, or set the coordinates to a particular terrace in Oia or Fira. Choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand.
