Chicago Is a Hot Dog

Print
This piece looks to be a screenprint of this image of a hot dog business named red hot with above it in a white box says in bold letters, "CHiCAGO is A HOT DOG." Outside of the white box is an abstract scene. It looks to be a sort of landscape with muted colors filled with texture in the sky, ground and has an arch sitting on top of the bottom or land of the scene. The background has a gradient of a dark purple to a dark red with light blue scratches in the back. The ground itself is orange with a similar grey blue also scratching the surface. The arch is built from wavy lines of red, yellow, and blue.
