Solitude (of a Silent Night)
View through Harvard Museums
The horizontally oriented cityscape is printed in black ink on white paper. In this night scene viewed from an elevated perspective, a city’s densely packed high-rise buildings are illuminated by interior lights. They extend back to a starless and moonless black sky. Viewed close-up, all forms are composed exclusively of small triangular cuts.
