About the Item

In the soft pastel light of early morning, Photographer Mitchell Funk captures the iconic Art Deco Chrysler Building set against the Chase Bank Headquarters Building. Besides this being a visually beautiful image of midtown Manhattan, it's a statement about new and old architectural styles. The Chrysler Building has been a New York classic for 90 years, and the new Norman Foster 1,388-foot leviathan is becoming a new New York icon. Both wonders have a tapering design as they proudly rise in their self-generating grandeur. The rectilinear staggered setbacks of the Chase Headquarters act as a perfect complement to the fluid curves of the Chrysler Building crown and spire. Mitchell Funk's harmonious photograph of two New York City classics posing together may in itself become a classic. The image is part of a new epic exhibition, Mitchell Funk Photographs The Chrysler Building for 50 Years The Chrysler Building is one of the most photographed buildings in the world. Yet Mitchell Funk's photographs of it are anything but a tourist snapshot. For over 50 years, Funk has been celebrating and rediscovering it visually in a way that exemplifies the innovative spirit of its creators. The work is signed dated and numbered 3/15 lower right recto, with other sizes available, and it's unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit off color.
