DescriptionUnstretched. Image of a park walkway at the corner of 5th avenue in Manhattan, NY. The scene borders the south side of Central Park and 5th avenue where two buildings (Pierre Hotel, Taj Mahal and the Sherry-Netherland hotel?) with pointed roofs stick out beyond the immediate tree line. A small stairway (left foreground) connects the city with the park. The sky is a mix of light blue and streaks of red, and there are no figures visible in the scene.
