Manhattan depicts a cityscape complemented by a slice of park, likely New York City’s Central Park. It reflects the Midtown skyline, bustling with new architecture and business opportunities after World War II ended in 1945. A modern homeowner likely used this panel as a curtain in a large window, maybe referencing an urban scene outside.
