At first glance, Manhattan appears quietly understated, revealing its complexity only with time. The more closely you look, the more the design unfolds ~ its subtle geometry, rhythm and movement creating an ever-changing visual experience.
Inspired by the remarkable moment when the setting sun aligns perfectly with Manhattan's east–west grid of streets, the design captures both the precision and energy of the city. Abstract in expression yet rooted in this iconic phenomenon, it evokes the interplay of light, architecture and perspective that makes Manhattan so distinctive.
Originally created as a Richard Allan silk scarf design in the 1960s, Manhattan has been reimagined as a Limited Edition Fine Art Print, celebrating the timeless elegance and innovation of the original artwork.
Each print is hand-signed, individually numbered and printed on museum-quality etching paper, before being embossed with the Richard Allan London company seal.
