Story

A packed city scene fills the view, with churches, buildings, and streets crowded with people rendered in turquoise, red, and brown tones. Rooftops, windows, and figures layer across the composition, suggesting a dense urban neighborhood full of activity. The piece titled Queen City was painted in oil in 1965. Ralph Fasanella (1914–1997) was an American painter and trade unionist, also known for Subway Riders.
