  • Mein respects fur Richters art, he's wonderful!

  • I don't think it's far less emotional at all. Nor do I think it's total photo reality, atleast not in all of them. There's another quality that is not just photo reality.

  • @racsonam nicely put.

  • You're turning aesthetic choices into coded messages and doing it like a medieval christian interpreting psalms. Stop it.
