Jan Matulka

New York-Evening
1925

A stylized black and white print depicting an abstract cityscape with geometric buildings, some featuring smokestacks emitting plumes of smoke, and a variety of architectural forms creating a sense of depth and urban density. The artwork has a strong contrast between light and shadow, giving it a dramatic and somewhat industrial feel.
