Boston Parking

Photographer: ©

André Robé

1972 – Boston, Massachusetts, USA

This photograph, taken in 1972 in Boston, highlights the imposing and geometric architecture typical of American administrative buildings of the era. Dominated by white marble columns and a symmetrical facade, the structure embodies a blend of brutalist and modernist aesthetics, reflecting the architectural ambitions of the 1970s. The angular shadows cast across the sidewalks add visual depth to the composition, emphasizing the rigid and repetitive lines of the building.

In the foreground, an elegant Cadillac Fleetwood with its characteristic white roof is parked alongside a blue Ford utility vehicle, symbolizing the contrast between urban sophistication and practical utility. The flags suspended on poles further enhance the distinctly American identity of the scene.

The composition and natural tones evoke the distinctive style of Stephen Shore, renowned for his ability to capture the ordinary with documentary precision and artistic sensitivity, transcending the mundane. Like this photograph, Shore’s work explores the nuances of American modernity, highlighting the interplay between architectural grandeur and everyday life.

From the private collection of André Robé, this piece documents a time when urban planning and architecture not only defined public spaces but also shaped the visual and cultural identity of the United States. A timeless testament to the dialogue between grandeur and simplicity in an era of burgeoning modernity.

Print and framing

The different types of frames and finishes available

Print only

The print comes with its certificate of authenticity and a Hahnemühle hologram affixed to the back.

The framing is left to your discretion.

Floating Frame

The floating frame, sleek and modern, is one of the preferred framing choices for contemporary art galleries and museums.

The floating frame perfectly enhances your photographic print.

The spacing between the frame and the image creates a floating effect and highlights the image, making it an ideal art frame to maximize the depth and elegance of the artworks in our collection.

The print is mounted on a 2 mm Dibond panel and placed in the frame.

The depth of the floating frame is 4 cm, and the gap between the photograph and the inner edges of the frame is 0.8 cm for black or white finishes and 1 cm for wood finishes (Oak, Wenge, etc.). This arrangement creates a visually pleasing “floating” effect. Finally, a hanging system is attached to the back of the frame for a quick, easy, and secure installation.

Frame with mat

This classic framing combines timeless elegance and sophistication, offering a sublime presentation for your most precious artworks and photographs. A wooden or aluminum frame, chosen for its simplicity and nobility, adds a touch of authenticity and refinement to your piece.

The mat, an essential element of this ensemble, enhances the artwork by creating a visual space around it. It highlights the details and nuances while adding extra depth. Carefully selected, it perfectly complements the artwork without overwhelming it, allowing every detail to stand out.

Finally, the museum glass, of exceptional quality, provides optimal protection against harmful elements such as dust, humidity, and UV rays. With its unmatched clarity and anti-reflective properties, it ensures perfect visibility from every angle, allowing your artwork to shine without distractions.

This harmonious ensemble transforms each piece into a masterpiece, ready to be admired and preserved for generations to come. Investing in a classic frame means choosing to enhance and protect what you cherish with unparalleled distinction.
