CITY STREET
By
An illustrator known for his bold depictions of country life (A Summer Day, 1988) turns his eye to his native milieu with a portfolio of strongly evocative street-scenes captioned by concise rhymed couplets (""Sidewalk scrawls/Basketballs""). Using his usual broad line and uncompromising color, Florian captures the feel of the city with much more visual acumen than he displayed in the country books.
