King And Queen Towers – Atlanta Metal Print by Mark Tisdale
This unique King And Queen Towers metal print shows one of metro Atlanta’s most recognizable pieces of architecture. The Sandy Springs skyscrapers are actually named Concourse V and VI but everyone in Atlanta seems to know them as The King and Queen Towers. And yes, they were indeed designed to be reminiscent of the King and the Queen pieces in a chess set. This is a photograph that I’m particular proud of because it wasn’t the result of a chance encounter. I spent some months trying to find the perfect angle for these buildings and even then it took yet more time to get the right skies!
At the time I lived and worked in Alpharetta but frequently ventured south on Georgia 400 on the weekends. And I always had my camera just in case. On this particular afternoon, I saw the clouds in the late afternoon sky and I had a feeling that day might finally be the day. I camped out in the area waiting for the golden hour of light as the sun hits the horizon. And, I hope you’ll agree that it was well worth the wait. The late afternoon sun and those clouds came together to form the perfect dramatic backdrop for such a stunning pair of landmark Atlanta skyscrapers.
Even if this King and Queen Towers metal print had not turned out to be a popular one, I would have been proud of it just for the time it took me to get everything right. The fact it’s also been a popular Atlanta metal print is simply the icing on the proverbial cake.
I hope you’ll pause to share your thoughts. What attracted you to this particular metal print? Have you lived or worked in the area? Maybe like me you drove past them for years and they give you a sense of place? If you have thoughts or questions about this or any of my work don’t hesitate to drop me a note.
Metal Prints – Product Information
Metal prints are a contemporary and stylish choice that will arrive at your door ready to hang.
The artwork is printed on a 1/16″ thick sheet of aluminum that is then mounted on a 3/4″ thick wooden frame. The wooden frame is recessed from the edge of the print giving the appearance of a thin high-gloss metal print that appears to be offset from your wall.
Each metal print is made to your order and printed using archival quality materials that should last a lifetime. Metal prints take 5 to 7 business days to produce and are shipped directly to you in sturdy packaging.
The only decision you will have to make when ordering your metal print is how large you would like it to be.
