John Marin’s 1912 watercolor, *Woolworth Building, No. 28*, is a vibrant depiction of the towering skyscraper that was then a symbol of New York City. Marin's signature loose, expressive brushstrokes capture the building's soaring lines and the dynamic energy of the city. Using bold colors and simplified forms, he conveys a sense of movement and a modern perspective on the urban landscape. This piece is a notable example of Marin’s early work, as it demonstrates his fascination with architecture and urban environments.
