Drottningholm, Sweden
1967

A black and white photograph showing a person's hand holding a colored postcard that aligns with the actual landscape in the background. The postcard depicts a historic building by a body of water with a dramatic sky, which seamlessly merges with the real-life view of the same building in the background. The scene is framed by a walkway on the right and water to the left, with a series of vertical panels or sculptures on the right edge of the image.
