Vintage New York Skyline - Impressionist Yellow and Green

About the Item

From Weehawken, New Jersey, we see the vintage mid-town Manhattan skyline as it appeared in the winter of 1974. In the foreground, a perfectly positioned white cruise ship sprouts smoke from its smokestack as it passes by. The ship gives scale to the buildings and makes a statement about the ephemeral and the permanent. The image is shrouded in a yellow-greenish tone derived from the setting sun and also from the light green filter that Photographer Mitchell Funk placed over the lens. In the early 1970's Mitchell Funk broke away from traditional color photography and embraced the idea of innovating with color and light. The work is signed, numbered 3/15, dated lower right recto - printed later. unframed, Other sizes are available. The fine art photograph is unframed and is printed on fine art Hahnemuhle paper.

The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph. Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...
