A black and white photograph of one the two towers of the Brooklyn bridge in New York city. A small portion of the tower is visible to the right side of the photograph, the remaining frame of the photo focuses on the suspension cables. The larger thick main cable comes out from the top, with the tower, with relatively thinner cables cascade downwards diverging from the point of origin towards the unseen bridge deck in this photograph. The mix of diagonal cables vertical ties coming down from the main cables create a see through checkered effect.
A composition in blues and white (the paper). Imagery suggests an arctic landscape in stormy weather; we see icy seas, snowed-under buildings with antennae. A range of printing techniques were employed, producing a variety of stylistic looks - fine lines, brush work, etc.
