Regular price
$36.00
Hand drawn aerial axonometric map of a section of New York's Upper East side. The composition lays out across the so-called “Museum Mile,” stretching between 74th and 89th streets where 5th Avenue presents itself as the dividing line between the relentless Manhattan grid and the designed nature of Central Park. The Metropolitan Museum of Art intrudes into the open space, whose massive stand alone forms are fitting of the monumentality needed to house the global collection of art and artifacts found inside. With the axonometric view, the penthouses and rooftop oases of nearby buildings are on full display, hovering over the city streets below.
