Publisher's Synopsis

'Stephen's collection of glorious images is one of the most reliably edifying and entertaining things in my day' Mark Haddon, author of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime

Stephen Ellcock's international following avidly await his carefully curated and sequenced albums of little known and public domain imagery on social media. Taking his title from the first ever encyclopedia in the English language All Good Things (Omne Bonum), Ellcock's compendium of art and photography inspired by both the natural world and human endeavour provide comfort in these solace-seeking times.

All Good Things evokes the medieval tradition of exquisite, illuminated books: beginning with the universal and travelling through the realms of sky, sea, earth, science and humanity before ending amongst the angels and monsters that have so preoccupied artists over the centuries. Using found artwork from archives, libraries and little-known collections of art, illustration, photography and textiles, this is a glorious adventure; one that can be appreciated on many levels.
