Description:

Noel Rockmore (American/New Orleans, 1928-1995), "Midday, McGlades Saloon, NYC", acrylic on board, signed, dated "'70", and inscribed "McGlades" lower right, titled, dated "Feb 1970" en verso, 12 in. x 24 in.

  • Notes: Note: Located on the corner of 68th and Columbus Streets in New York City, Paddy McGlades Saloon was a favorite neighborhood bar for over a hundred years. Hanging from the ceiling was a round clock with the numbers printed backwards allowing the patrons to read the time in a mirror without turning around. Images of horseracing, a favorite pastime of the bartender Al "The Bishop," were displayed above the register. Populated by colorful characters seated at the bar, Rockmore depicts the seedy bar at midday, with bright light streaming in through the doorway and windows.
