083 : A water painting

083Takami Yamamoto
山本 隆三

This water painting is my first collection that bought at the gallery on times square in New York, 1972. That was also my first business trip abroad.  I liked this painting as a skyscraper drawing symbolized New York. After that, I was surprised to find it ” Flat Iron Building” as a forerunner of skyscraper in Manhattan.

水彩画

昭和47年(1972年)、初めてアメリカに出張、ニューヨーク、タイムズスクエアの画廊で、初めてドルで購入した水彩画です。ニューヨークらしい摩天楼の絵と気に入って買ったが、後でこのビルがマンハッタン高層化のはしりの建物の”フラットアイアンビル”であることを知ってびっくり。
