Harlem Nocturne
About the Item
The work of contemporary realist painter Max Ferguson possesses an unmatched cinematic quality. Infusing nostalgia and narrative through heavy contrast and photo-realism, his personal touch is evident. With meticulous attention to detail, light, and shadow, Ferguson crafts a moment in time so intricately that each painting unfolds vividly for the viewer. His unique use of nostalgic expression has earned him recognition through countless solo and group exhibitions, highlighting his skillful execution and atmospheric representation. Focusing particularly on the streets of New York City, Ferguson's work captures the essence of everyday life. In the case of 'Harlem Nocturne,' he presents a universe of moments inviting viewers to immerse themselves.
