Story

A tugboat moves along the waterfront in the foreground while tall art deco towers rise along the Manhattan skyline behind it, captured in black and white. This gelatin silver print was made in 1936 by Berenice Abbott (1898–1991), an American photographer associated with straight photography. The piece is held in the collection of the New York Public Library, credited to the Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Division of Art, Prints and Photographs.
