Mitchell Funk
New York City Hazy Day, Central Park West Towers Cradle Orange Red Sun

2023

About the Item

Dense smoke from Canadian wildfires blanketed New York City with a thick, warm grey haze, giving the sky a surreal quality. Sunset enhanced the hazy effect. Photographer Mitchell Funk exploited the perfect moment as the sun transformed into a lollypop-colored sphere cradled between two pre-war Central Park skyscrapers. The resulting image strikes a perfect composition where all the elements harmonious relate to each other. The attached video shows light and uses the still images as a reference for color and shape. This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, numbered 2/15, dated and titled and lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. This work is printed on fine art Hahnemuhle paper.
