Part of the New York Collection. Art measures 8 x 20 inches Box Canvas, unframed (as shown) This dynamic original painting by British contemporary artist Angela Wakefield captures the iconic sight of New York’s yellow cabs set against the dramatic backdrop of towering skyscrapers. Painted in a tall, vertical format, the composition emphasises the soaring scale of the city, drawing the eye upward from the bustling traffic to the monumental architecture above.
