Buffalo Harbor 1950

"Buffalo Harbor" is a 1950 linocut print by the artist Carlo Antonia Nisita. It depicts the harbor in Buffalo, New York, with a focus on the city's skyline. The print is characterized by its stark black and white contrast, with the city buildings appearing as bold shapes against the lighter sky and water. The composition is framed by a large ship in the foreground, which creates a sense of depth and scale. This artwork showcases the artist's ability to capture the essence of a place through simple, yet effective, graphic techniques. The linocut medium, a printmaking process using a carved linoleum block, contributes to the print's distinct texture and graphic quality.
