I fucking hate this picture.
>>12773346
I had to read this and I hated how this picture had absolutely nothing to do with the story. I hate the painting before reading Frankenstein though. It's fucking stupid the romantic idea of a beautiful vista sullied by some bloke in a coat that was so popular at the time. FUCK off. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA fucking vain pre-selfie era hedonists

Society was 'going somewhere' and this feeling was what was evoked by the term progress.

Now, we live in industrial civilization's collapse, while the information economy hasn't quite yet reached every facet of human life via automation.

Today, this 'man' would be a post-gender homo-fascist Googler looking at everbody's dick pics.

A man being on the center of the picture and on top of a rock contemplating the world conveys in a position that is neither too rigid nor too relaxed conveys feelings of control, being at the top of the hierarchy, being entertained by the crude reality, and evoques that he is freely pondering about ideas that nature inspires to him and we would be curious to know about.
