...print's resolution, however, but also upon this conceptual turn: the photo is not really of the Emperor, but of his wax figure at Madame Tussaud's museum in London. Wax statues look almost laughably fake in person, but Sugimoto exploits the power (or perhaps the weakness) of the camera's single eye to flatten perspective and encourage illusion, thereby creating an image that looks more real, more human than the wax object he is photographing.
