Description from the seller

Aerial photograph of the Wrapped Reichstag (East/West perspective) photographed by Wolfgang Volz
Contemporary Photo Art / Land Art

For sale is an impressive photograph of one of the most iconic art projects of the 20th century: “Wrapped Reichstag, Berlin, 1995” by Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
The spectacular aerial shot from a bird’s-eye view captures the wrapped parliamentary building in its full monumental impact. Through the vantage point, the work unfolds a fascinating spatial effect that makes the building appear as a sculptural structure in the midst of the urban space. The silver fabric masterfully contrasts with the play of light and shadow.
This fleeting masterpiece was photographed by the official project photographer Wolfgang Volz, whose images significantly contributed to the worldwide notoriety of the project and today are valued as standalone works of art.
This distinctive spatial view is perfect as a statement piece for modern interiors, minimalist settings, or loft apartments.
