Melvin Sokolsky — Over New York
Melvin Sokolsky

Over New York

A surrealist dreamscape captured by visionary photographer Melvin Sokolsky, *Over New York* presents a figure suspended in a translucent bubble floating high above the iconic Manhattan skyline. The image blurs the boundaries between fantasy and reality, evoking a sense of weightless liberation against the sprawling urban landscape below. Rendered as an archival pigment print, this later edition preserves the crisp tonal depth and ethereal quality that define Sokolsky's groundbreaking fashion and fine art photography.
