In 1931 he moved with his Jewish wife Thea Herrmann-Trautner to Paris and they started traveling extensively. He was particularly fascinated by large cities. After a first visit in 1933 to New York, which featured in his paintings thereafter, the couple planned a longer stay in 1938 but ended up settling there permanently on account of the war. Thöny organized numerous exhibitions in the USA but at the same time remained largely isolated from the New York art scene. Several hundred works, the majority of his œuvre, were destroyed in a warehouse fire in March 1948."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Oil on cardboard"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"1"},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"View of Manhattan (East River)"},"classification":{"label":"Genre","value":"Painting"},"primaryMedia":{"label":"PrimaryMedia","value":"/internal/media/dispatcher/4828/full"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1935\u20131938"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"10193436"},"iiifManifest":{"value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-3418/manifest"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"56 × 78,2 cm"}}]}
