Apprentice LAB

Apprentice Munim Shah's 11" x 14" print of the Chicago River, Wrigley & Tribune buildings also sold during our recent silent auction. Dramatically lit, the Wrigley building without it's signature clock tower (and duplicated by the river's reflection) offers insight into some classic lines and details often overlooked in a skyline dominated by icons. Munim Shah, ladies and gentlemen.
