Narrative - Jeff Wall

I have chosen a well known photo from Jeff Wall's work. Here, in this image he has tried to recreate, in his own way, a painting from 1832. The famous artist, who created the painting is Katsushika Hokusai. On reading a bit about the image Wall taken in 1993, which he named 'A Sudden Gust of Wind' he took 100 photographs and it took him over a year to produce. About this he said "to achieve a seamless montage that gives the illusion of capturing a real moment in time."
