Mitchell FunkSurreal City - Manhattan Magical Moment
About the Item
The alignment of the planets comes together in a perfect magical moment. A man sets foot on a terrace - an airplane comes into frame - golden light strikes the perfect pitch - atmospheric conditions are optimal and finally, the photographer has an ideal vantage point to capture it all. The result is an original image that captures the interplay of light and color and is evocative of a psychological dreamlike state of urban life.
This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, dated and numbered 2/15, lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
