Walking up 5th Ave, Gilded lady is waiting for me

Veiw up 5th Ave. NYC.

 

Created by famed artist Tristan Eaton, the mural has already assumed the moniker “The Gilded Lady,” an artistic testament to the rich and textured history of NoMad neighborhood from the Gilded Age onward.

Face of the mural is that of Evelyn Nesbit; dubbed “Miss Manhattan” model, and chorus girl, and often considered America’s first supermodel, her face appears on many sculptures throughout the city. As well as one of the walking liberty silver dollars coins.
