Jack Simmerling Original Signed “Fish Bowl Gothic” Ink Drawing 43/500

This original fine ink drawing No 43/ 500 by Jack Simmerling titled Fisk Bowl Gothic .It depicts the old Water Tower on North Michigan Ave in Chicago in memory of the pre-fire Chicago. The drawing is original, not a reproduction and is signed twice, adding to its unique value as a one-of-a-kind piece of art. The signature is on the front and back. The glass was recently removed from the drawing to reframe, however I’ve decided to begin selling my art collections. If you love Chicago history this is the perfect original piece . There are smudges on the bottom and top right shows a faint mark that probably can be removed by an art restoration professional. Personally I think it adds character and was there when purchased. Drawing measures 9” X 11” Fits Frame 10” X 12 “ Inscription on back: Fisk BowlGothic “Basking on North Michigan Avenue like a mam-mouth "fish bowl castle", the famous old Water Tower defies time and traffic as a romantic memory of pre-fire Chicago. When the Water Tower was completed in 1869 it supplied the city's 30,000 residents with "noteworthy quantity" of 18 million gallons of water every day. Over a century later, some 75,000 automobiles make a detour around the medieval landmark each day.” 43/500” If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
