New York in Black explores the urban landscape of New York City through a predominantly monochromatic lens, emphasizing contrasts of light and shadow that evoke a contemplative, almost cinematic mood.

Christophe Jacrot captures iconic city scenes with a focus on atmosphere and structure, presenting familiar views in a way that highlights the interplay between architecture and natural elements like rain or fog. The 48-page collection offers a concentrated visual study of the city’s moodiness and transient moments.

Published by Hartpon in 2017, the book uses black-and-white imagery to distill a complex metropolis into simplified, striking compositions that invite prolonged reflection.
