The Kiss

The Kiss
Funny how things work. Two weeks ago, I read a long thread online somewhere about artworks that inspired other artists. And I just happened to rewatch Shutter Island that same week. There is a scene in that movie that references this painting. Gustav Klimt's The Kiss. And then last Sunday I visited the weekly flea market at Hötorget and the first thing I noticed was a print of that painting! So I guess I should have bought it. But cycling 35 km with it sounded a little too hard.

I'm curious. Why did you post it sideways?

It was placed like that! I have a zoomed out photo that I might show you via flickr later today. So this is how it was presented.
