Parkway Bridge
Artist: Howard Norton Cook
Circa: 1931
A master of moody contrast and structural rhythm, Howard Norton Cook captures an arched bridge in this 1931 lithograph—likely part of his broader documentation of American infrastructure during the Depression era. Rendered in rich black and white tones, the image blends natural and built environments with sweeping line and tonal nuance. Cook’s work, deeply tied to the American Scene movement, is both documentary and expressive, revealing beauty in the everyday.
