About the Item

Mitchell Funk captures a timeless image of New York scene in a fresh way. The unorthodox composition leaves the center of the picture vacant, leaving the two subjects on the extreme edges of the picture plane. The old State Island Ferry embarks on one of its many voyages with only empty space and time ahead of it. The image is emblematic of the Ferry's soothing tranquility as it departs the frenzied pace of the city. This archival color photograph by fine art photographer Mitchell Funk is signed, dated and numbered 3/15, lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper Mitchell Funk is a pioneer of " Color Photography" In 1970 he participated in one the first " Color Photography" shows at a major museum. Brooklyn Museum, show "Images en Couleur" . 1971 Included he was included in the visionary book "Frontiers of Photography" Time Life. Color ! American Photography Transformed. Amon Carter Museum.
