R.O. Blechman's New York at Night is an elegant and refined depiction of the city that never sleeps. The buildings of midtown and lower Manhattan are gently outlined in black ink, while colored details draw attention to some of New York's architectural wonders: Grand Central Station, the Empire State Building, and the Chrysler Building, their spires and façades glowing like jewels in the night. Blechman is an accomplished animator, illustrator, children's book author, graphic novelist, and editorial cartoonist; he created 15 iconic covers for The New Yorker between 1974 and 1996.
literature: PAI-LXXXII, 166
