(50.2 x 40.6 cm.) Image dimensions: 17 ¾ x 12 in. (45.1 x 30.5 cm.) Very good condition Estimate $2,000-$2,500 Frequently using New York City as his subject, Charles Harbutt uses his compositional skills in conjunction with the architecture of the city to create this striking image of the Empire State Building. Taken from a low angle, the iconic building towers over the viewer, the strong sense of verticality heightened by the rows of fluorescent lighting overlaid on the image. Charles Harbutt (American, b. 1935) For the first twenty years of his photographic life, Charles Harbutt was a photojournalist, working mostly through Magnum Photos (of which he was twice president) for magazines in Europe, Japan and the United States. Since 1980, he has pursued more personal interests in order to recapture the pleasures of photography for its own sake. Charles Harbutt’s pictures have been widely collected and exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Whitney and at the Beaubourg, the Bibliotheque Nationale and the Maison Europeene de la Photographie in Paris. In 1997, his negatives, master prints and archives were acquired for the collection of the Center for Creative Photography, Tucson, Ariz.
