About this work
A cluster of high-rise towers forms a hazy skyline across the middle of the canvas, their silhouettes built from loose vertical strokes and scattered points of red and white light standing in for windows. Below, a dark band of water mirrors the glowing city, with a shadowed shoreline or roadway visible in the near foreground.
Violet-grey sky meets an ochre-and-olive city mass warmed by gold highlights; thick, dry-brushed strokes and scraped textures create a shimmering, misty glow. The handling is loose and impressionistic, dissolving architectural detail into color and light for a moody, dreamlike nocturne.
