Waah! I was browsing around images of 1920s New York (for the Prohibition AU, because fanfic truly does bring you all the nice things), and found the etchings of Martin Lewis (1881 - 1962). There's a gallery of some of them here. And, oh. Oh.

Arch, Midnight is just so dark and sublime and so noir (with a hint of Jack the Ripper). East Side Night, Williamsburg Bridge is the same, with a fabulous night view across the city. The Great Shadow is another, more intimate view of a similar night-time street. Shadow Dance is a different, more daytime image.

*grins* This is how you find beautiful things. You research shit for fanfic, and get lucky. *beams happily*
