Brooklyn Bridge

1929

Ernest Fiene

Associated Names

Ernest Fiene

Artist, American, 1894 - 1965

The image shows a bridge with sweeping cables converging towards the center, towering arches framing the scene. The bridge pathway stretches into the distance. The horizon is obscured by the bridge structure, revealing the moon in the sky to the right. Bold black brushstrokes and shading against white paper create a dramatic composition. The monochromatic color palette features shades of black and white. Two figures walk hand in hand along the walkway.
