Richard Haas

Manhattan View, Battery Park; and Manhattan View, Battery Park, Night

Two photo-etchings with aquatint depict sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline as seen from Battery Park, with one rendering the iconic cityscape in the light of day and the other capturing its luminous transformation after dark. Richard Haas masterfully employs the rich tonal range of aquatint to convey the atmospheric depth and grandeur of the urban panorama, from the glittering reflections on the water to the towering silhouettes of the city's architecture. Printed in colors on Arches Cover paper with full margins, these works reflect Haas's celebrated ability to document and elevate the built environment through meticulous printmaking technique.
