very interesting photo for a very interesting man... very good writer .. but complicated mind ....
That statue must be very impressive in reality, and how you framed the hands gives a very strong and "painful" feeling.. The eyes.....too, looking deeply, and so far away at the same time..
Was Strindberg already sick with pneumonia when that statue was built ??
This is an intelligent combination of unconventionally square framing and an unconventional choice of DOF. It really makes one stop and think. Great photography!
