Dreams of Battery Park City

98 MEGAPIXEL VAST PHOTO
Battery Park City, New York City

The Battery Park City neighborhood in lower Manhattan is built entirely from reclaimed land. Only a few decades ago, the area still belonged to the Hudson river. Consequently, the usual flow of traffic and activity throughout the city, evolved from centuries of city planning, generally doesn't route through the neighborhood. Therefore, Battery Park City is an unusual area of peace and quiet amid the never-ending din of lower Manhattan. It is for this reason that I love photographing it.

After watching the moon's trajectory through the night sky for some time, I found the date where it would appear to be setting perfectly into the heart of Battery Park City, helping to convey the peaceful slumber the neighborhood enters every night.

Canvas print

Our ready-to-hang canvas prints are created using a specialty printer that carefully lays pigment inks down onto archival-quality fine art canvas material. The canvas is then stretched around a 1.5-inch-deep wood support structure to provide depth and elegance. Our canvas material has a delightfully matte finish that looks spectacular in any lighting conditions while retaining maximum vibrancy and contrast. Click here to learn more.

Produced using a specialty, large-format fine art printer operating at 300ppi resolution—the gold standard for sharpness
Printed onto heavyweight, 100% acid-free fine art canvas to preserve color-accuracy and longevity
Created using materials and methods that exceed the rigorous technical standards required to achieve the prized "giclée" industry rating
Designed to meet the most demanding standards for color-permanence set by leading museums
Handmade by award-winning master printmakers with over 4 decades of experience
Optionally accompanied by your choice of elegant floater frame available in a variety of trims

VAST Print™

A VAST Print™ represents the pinnacle of the photographic medium. Each print is a true photograph created specifically for you using light-sensitive paper exposed in a darkroom with the industry's highest precision exposure technique. Your print is then sealed with a shine-enhancing protective glossy coating*, adhered to a sturdy aluminum composite backing, and finished in one of two ready-to-hang formats:

  • Frameless floating display: A hidden mounting brace on the rear gracefully "floats" the print off the wall for a sleek, modern look.
  • Framed display: The print is mounted inside one of our handcrafted 100% wood frames with a decorative separation between the print and the frame so that the print appears to be floating within the frame, providing depth and elegance to the finished photo.

*Note: a non-glossy, satin matte coating is alternatively available on request.
