English painter Jacklin began his career working in abstraction, but moved toward figuration in the mid-1970s, specifically investigating the effects of light and movement. Since 1985, New York City has been Jacklin's home and primary subject, as he explores all aspects of the city, from famous landmarks to Central Park's Great Lawn, as in this painting.
