Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Fortunately this now beautiful and historic building was not demolished, like so many others have been all across our country. This architectural masterpiece was originally a Union Hall way back in the day and for about four decades was home to the Cincinnati Color Company. During the 1940 - 50s, Cincinnati's most famous boxer trained here inside a gym on the 2nd or 3rd floor. Ezzard Charles became the Heavyweight Champion in 1950 when he took the title from Joe Louis. In later years the building became vacant and deteriorated as the years flew by. In recent years it was saved from that sad state and reborn. Located at 1400 Vine Street in the center of Over-The-Rhine district, the whole area is thriving once again with new restaurants, businesses, lofts and entertainment venues. Here in the heart of Cincinnati, city officials, developers and businesses have done much more than just ... Paint the Town.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and painterly-style effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green square magnifier as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
