Publisher's Synopsis
Everyday yet oft-remembered sites of the Big Apple are portrayed in these beautifully rendered images taken from manipulated, painted Polaroids. Spanning all four seasons and day and night, they are a whimsical reminder of the sites and sounds of the city. Among the images captured in these oil-painted vignettes are sailboats in Central Park East, a brownstone in Washington Square, the Metropolitan Museum, Times Square near Broadway and 42nd Street, Pastis in the meat-packing district, and an iconic hot dog stand and taxi cab. The 12-month calendar also notes major holidays, shows the phases of the moon, and provides space for jotting down reminders, appointments, meetings, and special events.
