Comment Historical interest, but the composition is not to my taste. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:35, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose – Gimmicky composition, dominated by back of chair. – Sca (talk) 12:44, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I actually believe the back of the chair adds to the composition. Not only does the top create a sort of straight line-of-sight between the two, but the darkness of the chair creates a separation which illustrates both the divide between the two politicians and the tenseness of the situation. The divide reminds me of Vier Apostel (see below) A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Talk 21:06, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
