This Rockefeller Center Christmas backdrop vividly illustrates a heartwarming, holiday scene from New York City’s lower plaza ice skating rink. The festive atmosphere is ignited by a vibrant assortment of colors, capturing the buzzing crowd of skaters enveloped by golden concourse walls, punctuated with windows and doorways. The plaza is encircled by numerous flagpoles, flying flags of red and green in celebration of the holiday season.
