By Art Chartow
Located in Chicago, IL
The grit and grime of the Great Lakes Steel Mill is juxtaposed by the field of tall wild grasses in the foreground and the vast blue sky above. A golden hue is cast upon the scene adding a softness to the harsh factory setting. A train track borders the painting at the bottom edge to add to the industrial feel. The piece is framed in a simple black wooden float frame measuring 20 x 26 inches.
