Excellent, haunting - an image of destiny
Goes to 10 for the lighting is masterly
A counterpart in photography of a Lucian Freud painting perhaps

7 from me. I think this fits the topic perfectly. I think Ms Lange would have composed the scene where the face is the first thing one sees... Now... the brightest place is his lower body. I think Ms Lange would have cropped the scene while shooting... to be more intimate... show his emotion more... by showing more of his face than his body.

But, that's just my opinion. :D
