AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Relive the nostalgia of the New York that was with this extraordinary miniature artistic diorama.
A one-of-a-kind, completely handmade collectible piece, faithfully scaled to reproduce the legendary facade of Ralph's Discount City, the historic TriBeCa (Manhattan) store closed in 2007 and which has become a symbol of vintage New York thanks in part to the famous shots by photographers James and Karla Murray.
This splendid low-relief diorama captures the urban soul of the Big Apple, complete with a shutter decorated with graffiti, storefronts full of details, and the iconic original lettering. A miniature work of art perfect for New York memorabilia collectors, urban modeling enthusiasts, or to give any space a unique and exclusive touch.
Technical Specifications and Production:
• Dimensions: 17.5 x 12 x 5 cm
• Condition: New, finished and protected with a final clear coat.
• Construction Technique: Advanced mixed technique. The supporting structure was created using high-precision 3D printing and subsequently handcrafted.
• Handcrafted Coloring: Entirely hand-painted. The base tones and main shading were applied with an airbrush, while the finest details, urban weathering, and finishes were done with brushes and acrylic markers.
• Interior Details: The shop windows and displayed goods were recreated using paper printing techniques and millimetric glueing, giving extraordinary depth and breathtaking realism to the entire scene.
Being a completely handmade work of art, no two pieces are identical: a true one-of-a-kind item.
