Golden Gate, 2016 by Jo Crowther is a 16" x 12" Archival Inkjet Print from a Limited Edition of 12.
The iconic Golden Gate bridge looms out of a dusky sky in this evocative and introspective portrait of the impressive orange giant construction.
Spanning the breadth of the Golden Gate, the one-mile-wide strait that connects San Francisco Bay with the Pacific Ocean, the Golden Gate bridge has long been a focus and destination for photographers seeking iconography in the world.
This portrait of the Golden Gate bridge by Jo Crowther is unusual and unexpected. Instead of vainly trying to capture the engineering behemoth in its entirety, Crowther isolates a section of one of the bridge, focussing her lens on one of the two towers that sear up into the sky.
In her portrait she captures the quiet magnificence of this feat of engineering. from the Art Deco accents that decorate the tower, to the early signs of rust that cascade down the suspension cables.
This is a living portrait, with the rows of traffic trundling slowly underneath, and crocodiles of pedestrians desperately trying to cross the bridge and the traffic in order to capture the perfect shot.
Crowther's portrait is understated. It lifts the Golden Gate bridge out of itself, allowing the engineering giant itself to speak. Labeled by Maker,Numbered
