Rotwang art
The great technologist C.A. Rotwang is with little doubt the most interesting character from Fritz Lang‘s Metropolis (1927). He has the most complex motivation and the deepest backstory of all the characters therein, and unsurprisingly he’s a principle literary hero for this site, celebrated with his own commissioned image. The coming-to-be moment of his creation, the Maschinenmensch, appears at the top of every page here. So I’m delighted to be able to link to a post of Rotwang concept art by Nathan Heigert.
If you’re a fan of this theme, it’s worth checking out the entire post and indeed, Heigert’s entire blog of Metropolis art.
