The City

Hopper Before the Valley
The City

Aerial nighttime view of a dense European-style town. Dark rooftops, warmly lit windows, a central illuminated square with a small garden and red flowers. Cobblestone streets stretching toward a hazy horizon. The Valley from above — the architect's view, the god-view.

Critical Notes

Where Self-Portrait showed one lit window, this shows dozens. The whole Valley alive at night. The gardener looking down at every house he built.
