Written on the back of this work is: “In 1962, I first visited New York — the destination that all young photographers must visit. Later, looking at my contact sheets, I was surprised how many pictures had the American flag in the background. I realized the flag could be used as a link, showing visual and social changes in New York during my many future visits. This picture is taken in 2002. It is pertinent to me, a Brit, as in some way I feel it fits into the dubious tradition of the British risqué postcards. It has never been published, as the book it would appear in has yet to see completion.’’ — David Hurn
