Description: You are bidding on: Here is New York A Democracy of Photographs 2001 #0505 World Trade Denny Tillman Copied from Vanity Fair: On the evening of September 10, 2001, New York photographer Denny Tillman did something he often does. He placed his camera on a tripod and captured the view to the south from the roof terrace of his apartment in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. That night, he managed to render a breathtaking vista, revealing the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers jutting up over the skyline as a summer storm receded. “The rain had stopped,” he says, recalling how he “watched as the clouds swirled. At times the towers would disappear, then reappear…. Very magical but also ominous.” The next morning, he happened to be watching, aghast, when a commercial airliner slammed into the north tower, its upper floors erupting in a ball of fire. “There was no sound at all,” Tillman recounts. “It went in completely silently. Seven or eight seconds later, I heard a muffled kaboom, like a cannon shot miles away.” Throughout the day, he and other tenants from his building watched the catastrophic events unfold, including the collapse of both structures. Horrified, he continued to photograph. “The tragedy was too great to comprehend. From our vantage point we knew that thousands of people were dead and injured and we were powerless to help.” That evening, after perhaps the longest and most tragic day in New York history, Tillman made a chilling photograph of a new set of swirling clouds: smoke plumes that rose from the rubble of what would soon become known as Ground Zero.This photo is combined photograph of September 10 and September 11, 2001 of the view from Denny Tillman's residence facing the World Trade Center in New York.The whole photo is about 17" x 11" (edge to edge, unframed) and the individuals are 8.5" x 6" inside the black and white border.Marked and dated on the bottom of each photo.Photograph by Denny Tillman#0505 in the: Here is New York A Democracy of Photographs September 10 and 11th of 2001 World Trade Denny TillmanUnframed but original, as noted on the back.Will be shipped FLAT and carefully.MKOS4PhotoShelfPayment: I accept all forms of payment and payment is due within 3 days of purchase.
