Taken somewhere in Iceland, not that it matters!

Rhein III?

I don't understand the question.

I personally find Iceland III (aka "Closeup of Wall") much more interesting (as an abstract) than Rhein III.

It's quite well-balanced, but its origin in Iceland is not obvious.

No, I guess Icelandic walls are much like any other walls!

I actually had in mind Rhein II, in which case Peter’s picture would be #3. I didn’t even realize there is Gursky’s Rhein III, until now, that is.
