I have just bought this, in China, in jigsaw puzzle form, as inspiration for a novel I'm writing. Can't wait to put it all together.

Another of his originals that I own--this piece has to be seen to be appreciated. No one who spends time with it comes away unaffected. The detail is extraordinary--the mood undeniable

Artist Reply: This was an outrageously fun painting to do. My objective in creating the composition was to create a number of different vignettes by creating a scene in a lighted area of the painting, then separating it by leaving dark areas like the stair case roofs and railings and then lighting the interior of the stairwells themselves. Also the loading platforms are lighted and the passenger cars beyond the platforms are darkened with lighted windows. This enabled me to create a great number of scenes within scenes which is one of my favorite creative gambits. I am deeply gratified to hear that after all these years, people still find the work to be a fresh experience every time they look at it.

wow, I love this one so much, I dont know why but it reminds me of Christmas. I can almost smell the street sellers with their roast chestnuts. Gentlemen and ladies all in their best to go to the theatre. Great work Stanton, your truly talented. Lisa x

Marvelous historic piece! Beautifully executed with incredible detail. I play in a all-girl group that performs music from 1910-1940 (mostly the Boswell Sisters) and am really fascinated with turn of the century American history. Check out our website at www.jazzbirds.com
