Stoops Of Manhattan



There are two places I think I need to move to in order to do what I want to do for a career NY & LA.  But it's always been a dream of mine to live in NY and this painting really makes me want to go!  Painter Andrew Berrien Jones casts his eye on the mid-19th century iron railings ornamenting the stoops of lower Manhattan. Twenty of Jones’ paintings are on view at the Museum of the City of New York in Stoops of Manhattan: Railings and Shadows. An important documentation of the artistry of ironwork, and a testament to Jones’ attention for shape and texture in the urban environment.
