Plots(1)

A panoramic scene of the Dreamland and Luna Park amusement parks on New York's Coney Island, with their many lights like the reflection of a vertiginous carousel. The disappearing and reappearing glimmering points of light trace the outlines of swings, a Ferris wheel and shimmering pavilions promising fantastical experiences.
