above: Romare Bearden (right) and his friend Albert Murray in
1981 on the balcony of Murray's apartment at 461 Lenox Avenue
in Harlem, overlooking the view that inspired The Block.
“Whenever I visited him, I was inspired by the series
of houses I could see from his windows. Their colors, their forms,
and the lives they contained within their walls fascinated me…”
