About this print: Fire Escape was created in the same time period as the Capital Ideas suite. The subject is the wrought iron fire escape of the artist’s third floor studio on Greene Street in SoHo. The fire escape, accessed by a door from the studio, served as a small patio on hot summer nights. It was from this vantage point that he made the study drawings for the Capital Ideas series.
