This piece showcases a stunning watercolor painting of downtown New York City as seen from the Brooklyn Bridge.

The perspective is fantastic, capturing the bustling ports lining the East River. In the foreground, old brownstones stand near the river, transitioning to the towering buildings behind them. In the distance, ships and boats steam out on the river, their smokestacks billowing. A lone plane soars far above, and the sky is filled with glowing puffy clouds, adding to the vibrancy of the scene.

Dad's work in this piece reflects his admiration for the dynamic energy of New York City. His love for classical artists like Dufy, Picasso, Matisse, Renoir, Van Gogh, and Cezanne is evident in the expressive brushstrokes and vivid colors. The blend of expressionist, fauve, and impressionistic styles brings the city to life, capturing not just its physical presence but its spirit.

On this day in 1964, Dad found A View from the Bridge. ❤️
