This you probably know already, but just in case, this fine sculpture is from a 1932 UPI photo of workman resting on a beam while building the Empire State Bldg (in the Bettman Archives). But perhaps what you’re asking is who is the sculpter and that I don’t know. NYC is my favorite in the world. Now live in Santa Monica and miss New York soooo much. Thanks for keeping me in touch through your great photos which you so generously share with us. Janiced
This is a great image. I’m glad you didn’t try to do a black and white conversion on this–I think the blue tones work well given the relative monochrome tone of the overall image.
