About the Item
This black-and-white photograph captures the dramatic skyline of New York City, with towering skyscrapers rising above the water. In the foreground, a ferry glides across the river, its steam billowing from the smokestack as it makes its way past the urban landscape. The sharp contrast between the modern, sleek buildings and the vintage ferry evokes a sense of nostalgia for mid-century New York, a time when the city’s waterfront was as busy and dynamic as the skyline. The image perfectly encapsulates the hustle and energy of the city, blending its iconic architecture with the timeless appeal of its waterways.
This print is available as a Fine Art Print on high-quality paper (Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta) and is produced by Whitewall. It will be shipped carefully in a tube to reduce shipping costs.

In 1951, Andres contributed to Edward Steichen's iconic exhibition "The Family of Man" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
