This captivating painting showcases the mesmerizing “Manhattanhenge” phenomenon in New York City, also known as the Manhattan Solstice. It perfectly aligns the setting or rising sun with the east-west streets of the city’s main grid. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson cleverly coined the term, drawing parallels to Stonehenge. Notably, the sunsets and sunrises align twice a year, evenly spaced around the summer and winter solstices – approximately on May 28, July 13, December 5, and January 8.
In the artwork, the city’s hustle and bustle are evident, with cars rushing somewhere as their lights intermingle with the illuminated buildings, casting a radiant glow on the roads. The warm and calming hues of the sunset evoke a delightful summer atmosphere, truly capturing the magical essence of Manhattanhenge.
