The other work referred to is Albrecht Dürer’s proposed Monument to the Defeat of the Peasants’ Revolt (1525) – a rather odd monument which, instead of celebrating a heroic victory, perpetuates a defeat, portraying a betrayed peasant stabbed in the back in a manner reminiscent of the Crucifixion, hence arousing empathy. Wall seated the photograph’s protagonist on a totemic column comprised of diverse objects – a cinder block, topped by a curbstone, topped by a tree trunk – like an evolutionary chain of sorts which surveys the evolution of the natural within the urban, echoing the column on which Dürer’s peasant sits, which is comprised of agricultural implements, with farm animals at its foot.
