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 originally ordered this print in a larger size but was not pleased with the clarity of it. When I contacted Zazzle, they responded really quickly and were very helpful. I was able to reorder the print in a smaller size and it was shipped to me within a couple of weeks. The print was packaged well to ensure there was no damage during transit (Eco friendly, too!), and I am really pleased with it.
I am so grateful to the customer service team for the professional way they handled my order. I had this printed on matt finish card and I was really pleased with the quality. The colours were rich and the image sharp.
