Storm Thorgerson II: Album Research



The albums above are the most recognised of Pink Floyd's album covers, created by Storm Thorgerson. All extremely different, and extremely unusual/random, it is easy to see the reason for Thorgerson's fame, and continued working with Pink Floyd. The great diversity means that it extremely difficult to follow in the footsteps of Storm - particularly when looking at images such as the front cover of Floyd's Animals album, (where they suspended a inflated pig above a power station.) However, due to the randomness of his artwork, it is impossible to create two alike images, and therefore this does not detract from the artwork we have created.
