About This Design

The George Washington Bridge At Sunset Poster

The George Washington Bridge At Sunset Poster

John Alsdorf is a photographer in Washington Heights NY in Upper Manhattan who has the good fortune of having a full view of this bridge from his window. He did a series of the bridge at different times of the day. My interpretation is done in pastels on black paper while the sky was fiery and would eventually change into a serene blue blanket across the horizon. The bridge is near the sites of Fort Washington (NY) and Fort Lee (NJ), which were fortified positions used by George Washington and his American forces in his unsuccessful attempt to deter the British occupation of NYC in 1776. The GWB connects Washington Heights in Manhattan to Fort Lee, Bergen County, NJ, Interstate 95 and US Route 1/9 cross the river via the bridge. You will see the bridge in movies like "How To Marry A Millionaire, The 7 Ups, Aftershock: Earthquake in NY and The Other Guys. Even the video games "Metal Gear Sokid 2 & "Sons of Liberty" use the bridge in the intro title. It was opened to traffic in October 25, 1931.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame. This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again. One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up. Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font. Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
