From the artist's website:
"A miniature version of New York Reflections, Leslie's most ambitious project, the result of an intense three week visit to New York in May 2013 to observe, sketch and gather reference material. The paintings, full of colour, light and shadows are his observations and reflect a very personal view of the city. The text is made up of extracts from Jan Morris' book Manhattan '45.
