George Grosz's New York Street Scene from 1932 shows a cross-section of life in the City. It is, in general, much tamer than the street scenes he drew in Berlin. I believe I attended the George Grosz exhibit at the Soufer Gallery around the time this drawing was sold. Back then, I thought the prices were too high for my budget, although I'm sure the price for this Street Scene was nowhere near the $8,125 it recently fetched.
