About the Item
Artwork sold in perfect condition
During the 15 year period in which Fabrizio La Torre dedicated himself to photography, he travelled in Italy, Europe, North America and Asia. From wherever he went he brought back photos which depict the human condition, universal in meaning, full of emotions, with which he empathised. In order to make it easier for collectors and enthusiasts to get to grips with these works, we have opted for grouping together a set of 5 photos taken in a specific place under the heading “First Impressions”.
Here, First Impressions of New York where Fabrizio La Torre spent November and December 1955, during his 6 month trip to North America, which included Canada and California.
