This painting was one of two initial proposals for the cover of the 2014 book “Vancouver Confidential”. The other proposal (below), also 18” x 24”, looked east toward the same intersection - the busy Hastings St at Main. I saw the intersection epitomizing the city portrayed by “Confidential” at that period - the decades around 1950. This view was chosen for the book cover - metaphorically looking from the storm over the old city towards the newer downtown and towards the breaking light.
