In this piece, the vibrant hustle and bustle of New York City comes alive through my father's expressive brushstrokes.

The scene captures a lively street, likely around 53rd Street and 2nd Avenue, with the Empire State Building and the Grace Building towering in the background. The foreground is teeming with activity—people walking briskly on the sidewalks and cars navigating the busy streets. Brownstones are in the foreground, adding a nostalgic charm contrasting beautifully with the modern skyline.

Dad's love for the streets and parks of New York City shines through in this work. He always painted on location, immersing himself in the environment he was depicting. One can almost feel the energy of the city and imagine the curious glances of passersby as they watched him bring the scene to life amidst the daily rush. His ability to capture the essence of New York's dynamic atmosphere is truly remarkable, and this piece is a testament to his passion.

On this day in 1965, Dad wasn't shy. He setup his easle amid the electric city, during Rush Hour. 💖
