A black and white photograph featuring a city view downtown New York, captured from the 61st floor of the Chrysler Building. In the foreground is one of the iconic eagle gargoyles jetting out of the Chrysler building's facade. In the background is a perspective view of multiple skyscrapers going into the horizon, complemented by a white hazy sky. Towards the bottom of the photograph lanes of cars and trucks are stopped at the street light. A painted sign on one side of a building facing the eagle reads "This is the Lincoln Building 60 East 42nd St."
This painting looks out onto the sea through two open windows. It is a sunny day, and a dark-hulled, double-masted ship is seen through the left window. Through the right window, we see a dock and a yellow-orange building. Inside the windows there is a table laid with a teacup, two waterglasses, a spoon, a knife, a full basket, a pitcher with flowers, a small dish with a pat of butter, and the corner of a newspaper at the lower right of the canvas. The table is covered with a white tablecloth and to its left is a red wooden chair. To the left of the chair is what looks like part of a door with four panes of glass represented. It is signed in the lower left of the canvas, along a diagonal representing part of the door, "Maurice Freedman."
