Photo © Marcel van Balken

Entry description:
The famous stairs in the Vatican museum.
About photographer:
Marcel van Balken is a conceptual photographer from the Netherlands with an absolute preference for photographing architectural spaces and buildings in a play of light and shadow. He uses often abstract shapes and creates an almost surrealistic decor through the addition of man. Constructions and shapes, lines and surfaces photographed in sharp contrast with the insignificance of humans.
