New York Subway Canal Street Tile| Item # | | 15712 | | Size | | 6" x 8"
15 x 20 cm | | Price | | $36.00 | | About this item | | | This plaque is often referred to as "the lovers bridge and Aaron Burr'shouse." Jay Van Everen designed the mosaic plaque. Lee Stookey's research suggests that he was guided, as in his design for Union Square by a Lossing-Barrett drawing in the New York Common Council Manual of 1865.
Images of the ceramic mosaics and plaques of the New York subways are chemically imbedded into our tiles. This process makes it possible to capture the detail and color of these pieces despite the decades of accumulated grime and muted subway lighting. We couldn't climb up and wash the panels, but properly lighted and photographed, they do come alive!
