About the Item

This close-up of the Chrysler Building Spire in gold light was taken from the roof of a building on 38th Street. Its position gave Photographer Mitchell Funk a perfect line of sight to celebrate the spire's brilliant Art Deco design and sumptuous colors. The cropping of the image walks the razor's edge between abstraction and representation. A setting sun provides a perfect background of warm ochres and soft magentas that seamlessly weaves together the patterns of architecture and nature. The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit off color. Refer to the still images for more accurate color Signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, other sizes available, unframed and printed later.
