HistoryShots is a unique venture. As they explain it, “We started HistoryShots in 2003 in order to create a new type of information art that merged our interest in history, information graphics, and big picture ideas. Our inspirations come from many diverse people and graphical works, but in particular the works of Charles Joseph Minard and Edward Tufte of Yale University stand out.” Have a look.

Thanks for sharing these with us. They all look very well researched and that dedication to the subject is showing in each piece.
Designing for information is tough because there is nothing to hide behind. Represent the data.

Yup, I’ve been watching this site for a while. They are very methodical about what and when they add.
