Brooklyn Bridge Late Afternoon is a 1916 by Rachael Robinson Elmer, depicting Bridge, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows the Brooklyn Bridge glowing in late light. The sky is streaked with orange and purple. The stone towers stand dark against that bright sky. Rachael Robinson Elmer carved this from linoleum, a cheap floor material turned art tool. She used the soft material to get smooth, sweeping shapes. The bridge looks almost solid yet weightless at the same time. Check out prints by Paul Klee at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
