"City Hall Park (Woolworth Building)" is a c. 1915 etching by American artist Bror Julius Olsson Nordfeldt. The print depicts a dramatic view of the newly constructed Woolworth Building, which at the time of its completion was the world's tallest building. The towering structure dominates the composition, contrasting with the lower buildings in the foreground, and creating a sense of awe and wonder. Nordfeldt's meticulous detail and masterful use of light and shadow give the work a timeless quality, capturing the architectural grandeur and urban energy of early 20th-century New York City.
