This is a beautiful oil painting by Cuca Romley. Ms Romley was a long time New Yorker now retired, and living in Spain, and enjoying the beaches in Spain and France and painting into her nineties. This beautiful oil painting is of the Flatiron building at dusk, of a bygone era, captured with a whimsical happiness and exquisite, fine, detail. There are simply no oil paintings of NYC of this era depicted with such fine detail in this style..
