Washington Square Park, New York City: Hand-Illustrated City Art Print

Imagining the arch against a purple sky, at dusk, the neighborhood going quiet around it. This hand-illustrated print captures Greenwich Village in that hour: the deep violet sky settling in behind the arch, the city buildings on either side, the trees holding their green against the coming dark. A small visitor perches at the edge of the frame, watching the neighborhood change color.

Printed as a genuine giclée with fade-resistant pigment inks on Crane's Lettra®, a 110 lb cover, 100% cotton paper in Fluorescent White. Available in 8x10 and 11x14, unframed and ready for your favorite frame.

A Park Worth Sitting In

Washington Square is one of those parks we come back to every time we're in the neighborhood — good fountain, good people-watching, good arch. When it came time to draw it, the purple sky wasn't the plan. It just emerged as we worked through different color combinations. We liked how the arch looked against it, so we kept it.

This illustration starts from a photo taken on that visit. The deep purple sky, the green of the trees fighting the dark, the arch filling the frame — all drawn by hand in our Fort Worth studio.
About the Illustration
The Washington Square Arch was built in 1892 to commemorate the centennial of George Washington's presidential inauguration. It stands at the northern entrance to Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village, one of the most storied neighborhoods in New York City.

The illustration is drawn from straight on, the arch filling the vertical frame with the city rising behind it and the park stretching to the foreground. The inscription carved across the top — Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair... — is legible in the drawing.
New York City Wall Art for Any Space
This print works in a home office, a living room, or as part of a travel gallery wall. It pairs naturally with other city prints in the Hand-Illustrated Stopovers series — Chicago, Paris, Rome, Tokyo, and Seattle are all available separately.

The deep purple and violet palette is distinctive on a wall. A simple white or natural wood frame lets the color read clearly.
A Gift for New York Lovers

This NYC art print makes a meaningful gift for anyone with a connection to the city — a New Yorker who moved away, someone who visited and fell for Greenwich Village, or a friend who has always wanted to go. It is a popular choice as a New York City housewarming gift or a birthday present for the New York lover in your life.
