New York City Times Square Night Scene Print

This item is a framed print depicting a vibrant night scene of Times Square in New York City. The artwork is characterized by its vivid color palette, with prominent blues, purples, yellows, and reds illuminating the bustling cityscape. Rows of buildings are densely covered with an array of backlit billboards and marquees, advertising various Broadway shows such as 'Les Misérables,' 'The Phantom of the Opera,' 'Cats,' and 'The Lion King,' as well as films like 'The Matrix Reloaded.' Iconic brands like Coca-Cola are also visible on larger advertisements. The street level shows a flurry of activity with yellow New York City taxis, a red double-decker bus, and horse-drawn carriages alongside pedestrians. The wet asphalt reflects the bright lights, suggesting a recent rainfall or an artistic choice to enhance the luminosity of the scene. The print is housed within a simple white frame, which appears to be made of wood or a composite material, with a red border directly surrounding the image, adding a vibrant accent. The print is under glass or acrylic, which exhibits some reflections from the ambient lighting, indicating its protective layer. A price tag adheres to the top right corner of the frame, showing a price of $6.85, suggesting it may be from a thrift store or a similar retail outlet. The style is somewhat impressionistic, utilizing bold brushstrokes or digital textures to convey the energy and light of the urban environment. The presence of 'The Matrix Reloaded' (released 2003) as an advertisement helps place the estimated age of the artwork to the early 2000s or later. The print appears to be in good condition with no visible damage to the artwork itself, though the frame might show minor wear consistent with its retail environment.
