I found this image yesterday while processing magazines at the desk. It's by Annie Leibovitz.
I'm not sure what it is that intrigues me about it. I'll admit that I'm more of a fan of Gorby than Louis since the reproduction rates of the luxury accessories has allowed everyone from Paris to trailer trash to sport the well known insignia.
Perhaps it's just the juxtaposition of the man who helped tear down the wall coupled with the thought that LV was his ulterior motive? Maybe Gorby got a record deal since most straight males that I know are a little more pragmatic when it comes to choosing their traveling gear. Maybe it's just the bleakness of the photo juxtaposed with affluence.
