Image by Gottfried Helnwein



This photograph is a work done by Gottfried Helnwein, which shows a man climbing a young girl's face with a rope. The girl's right eye, eyebrow, and nose are showing, with her eye being the focal point. The man gives off a very casual feeling, he is not worried about falling. This image seems to be of a mural that was done that a man is on, for some unknown reason, maybe he is inspecting the mural. I believe this is a documentary image, which shows something that occurred naturally. I do not believe this image was photoshopped, maybe only to tweak some small things, but no changes to the overall image. I do not know what the intent behind the image was, to me it shows that we are too focused on our small imperfections and details. I especially think this because of the man on her face, he is very up close and due to her face being so zoomed in, he (and any onlookers) can see every detail in her face.
