Hightower Sunrise Canvas Afdruk

Bold, radiant, and symbolic, Hightower Sunrise reimagines the American metropolis as myth. A towering skyscraper—reminiscent of the Empire State Building—stands at the heart of the composition, cutting cleanly into a monumental rising sun. Beams of golden light stretch outward in dramatic symmetry, echoing vintage propaganda and travel posters of the early 20th century. With its flattened perspective, simplified forms, and vibrant palette of burnt oranges, muted golds, and cool blues, the artwork channels the optimism of Art Deco and the grandeur of WPA-era futurism. Stylized clouds drift past, grounding the idealism in a dreamlike realism. This is not merely a cityscape—it is an icon. The building becomes a beacon, a monument to ambition, progress, and the modern age. The sun behind it does not rise or set; it radiates endlessly, as if to say: the future is already here.
