About the Item
Post-Impressionist Golden Light illuminates six figures on Central Park's Bow Bridge. They are depicted in casual poses unburdened by everyday stresses. The low-angle backlighting source transforms the figures' hair into golden halos, making them seem like heavenly figures on Earth. In the foreground, out-of-focus foliage overlaps and frames the figures. The image was taken in 1977 and it is as abstract as it is representational and as dramatic as it is subdued.
The video is showing up a little light. The still image are a little dark. In person, the color is somewhere in between. It was shot on Kodachome and there is some grain to the image visible mostly on close inspection.
Signed and dated on lower right, numbered on verso Edition 2 of 15. Unframed. Other size available, Printed later - Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
