A closer look at the work

The Eiffel Tower occupies the centre, but the waiting people determine the foreground. Red jackets and trousers connect individual bodies into an irregular line. A long building leads into depth on the left, while pink foliage bounds the space on the right. Turquoise sky opens a large empty area above the crowded lower half.

The visible landmark and the temporary experience of waiting demand different kinds of attention. The tower offers an instantly recognisable point of orientation; the people remain distinct in their postures. The photograph connects a monumental idea of the city with an everyday experience of its visitors. Access becomes a shared process composed of many individual, staggered steps.

Personal consultation

The work, the space, the presentation.

What interests you about this work? I take time for your questions, its origins and its place in a collection. Together, we explore differences between works and their relationship with space, light and architecture.

Size, selected materials and bespoke framing are carefully coordinated. The precise presentation develops through our conversation.

A photograph of the intended space can help us consider scale and placement.
