Frame approx. 32 x 23 x 3 cm Inner opening mat: approx. 17 x 12 cm "I used to be a New York City taxi driver and that was my inspiration here. Quite often I'd work a double shift, knocking off at dawn - so it was real day and night experience and you'd go through the whole rhythm of the city. One of my favorite things about New York is that it is really a 24-hour city. No matter what time you go out there's always something to do, always something interesting going on", komentiert James Rizzi dieses 3D Werk. Very good condition of the print. Newly framed with mat. We ship securely packaged with insurance and tracking. Rizzi was the 3D artist; his art is especially popular in the USA, Switzerland, Germany and Japan.
