A brick tenement building rises vertically across the frame, its facade crowded with rectangular windows and zigzagging external fire escapes that create a rhythmic pattern of metal and shadow. Shot in high-contrast black and white, the photograph captures the densely layered geometry of urban architecture with crisp detail, emphasizing the structural repetition and industrial character of classic New York City construction. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
