Description
One of the most beautiful parkways in America, the Benjamin Franklin Parkway was designed by French urban planner Jacques Gréber in 1917 to emulate the Champs-Élysées in Paris. The latter terminates at the Arc de Triomphe, while the Parkway culminates in the classical and world famous Philadelphia Art Museum. This gives the notion of “a slice of Paris in Philadelphia.” The Free Library building featured in this painting is modeled after the twin palaces on the Place de la Concorde and designed by the prominent Philadelphia architectural firm of Horace Trumbauer. Because of its central location as the “front door” to the city, the Parkway is the site of many concerts and parades.
A giclée print is an elevation in printmaking technology. The original oil on canvas is first scanned by the Athenæum of Philadelphia using a sophisticated high-resolution digital scanner with a raking light to capture surface details. The giclée is then printed on acid-free archival canvas and stretched over a 3/4″ kiln-dried wood frame. Choose unframed or framed.
