This is a 1989 Henry Howells "EMPIRE MOON" poster.
This piece is captivating with its abstract depiction of a night city, creating a fantastical atmosphere. As the title suggests, it features skyscrapers reminiscent of the Empire State Building, an icon of New York, with geometrically simplified buildings arranged rhythmically to depict a tranquil night view.
The blending of watercolor-like blues and grays with pale pinks and yellows creates a soft, dreamlike quality, despite being a cityscape. The placement of the full moon and starry sky is also striking, with the contrast between the linear architecture and organic natural elements adding depth and a poetic ambiance to the composition.
Unlike realistic cityscapes, this work evokes a "city in memory" or an "idealized urban image," leaving room for the viewer's interpretation. It combines the postmodern sensibility of the 1980s with a high affinity for interior decor.
The vertical format also makes it an excellent accent piece to create rhythm on a wall.
The sharp silver frame complements the cool tones of the artwork, giving it a clean overall impression. It is perfect for modern and industrial spaces, and by adding it as a single piece to a simple interior, it brings an urban, sophisticated atmosphere.
Framed with acrylic cover and aluminum frame.
If you find it difficult to make holes in the wall, such as in a rental property, we also recommend displaying it leaning against a chest of drawers, desk, or on the floor.
