Summary[edit]

Description
English: Delmonico Building, by Charles Sheeler, 1926. Charles Sheeler's Delmonico Building is a quintessential example of American Precisionism of the 1920s, translated to lithography. A landmark hotel in New York City at the time, the Delmonico was a towering midtown skyscraper, admired for its setback form. The building typifies the kind of structure that Sheeler and other American artists working in the hard-edged, planar, and geometric style known as Cubist-Realism, and later called Precisionism, found inspiring. Lithograph, composition: 9 3/4 x 6 11/16" (24.8 x 17.0 cm); sheet: 14 7/8 x 11 3/8" (37.9 x 28.8 cm). Printer: George C. Miller, New York. Edition: approx. 50. Gift of Abby Aldrich Rockefeller. Object number: 1267.1940.
