The Long Stand, 4781 Manayunk Ave — Manayunk

Curatorial note

From its position at the curb, the motorcycle's red taillight and amber turn signals anchor the composition against a dark SUV and a warmly lit stone wall. The chrome springs catch the streetlamp, creating a sequence of bright points along the frame. Acquired January 2026, this work sits among the collection's studies of transportation objects that persist as features of Philadelphia's streetscape.
