" new york, times square " . . . jacques le tord 1947

" new york, times square "  1947,
the year of the biggest snow blizzard NYC recorded.
In this painting of my father's it looks as if the sky turned a curious red
was it december 25th, 1947?
Because December 26 & 27th of 1947 Central Park
was blanketed in a whopping 26.4" of snow according NYC. gov
"the blizzard of 1947 still holds rank as the biggest snowstorm in New York City history."
- jacques le tord, peintre ; école lyonnaise. 1911-1952
