The artwork, titled “Hancock (Rooftops Series #4),” was created by Edward Ruscha and belongs to the Pop Art movement. It falls under the genre of photography. The composition presents an elevated view of an urban landscape, capturing a quintessential snapshot of mid-20th-century American life.
The photograph features a city street viewed from a rooftop perspective. The scene includes a busy intersection with several cars, a bus, and a lone pedestrian crossing the road. Buildings line both sides of the street, some with visible signage, while the horizon stretches into the distance, showcasing the expanse of the city. The black and white medium accentuates the details and provides a timeless quality to the urban environment depicted in the artwork.
