Statue of Liberty on a Truck, New York City

Most cities have a chaotic visual schema. However, through the lens of veteran Street Photographer Mitchell Funk, anarchy becomes order. In the present work, "Statue of Liberty on a Truck," Funk captures a tableau of colorful horizontal bands on an Upper East Side building. A parked Pepsi truck anchors the banding pattern. Funk snaps a passing silhouetted Statue of Liberty graphic in the lower right quadrant to fit perfectly into the architectonic composition. Its presence not only forms a stunning urban photograph, but the placement of the Statue of Liberty on a city street is unexpected.

The work is signed, dated, and numbered 2/15, lower right recto. printed later, Other sizes are available 40 x 60 - and the fine art photograph is unframed. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper.
