Empire State Climbers - You Wish I Were This Romantic
by Bonne Nouvelle
A playful illustration inspired by the viral Empire State Building proposal, featuring two masked climbers perched high above the city on the building's spire. The scene nods to the real-life daredevil couple who scaled the antenna in July 2026 to stage their engagement, swapping their original peace-and-love message for a cheekier one.
Soft sky tones and cloud-filled background contrast with the dark banner and stylised figures, giving the artwork a modern, graphic feel. It has a humorous, slightly rebellious energy inspired by the internet's most talked-about proposal stunt, ideal for someone who'd never actually climb a skyscraper for you, but appreciates the joke.
