UWE Visual Culture. New essay topic: Tante Marianne

Tante Marianne is a painting by Gerhard Richter (1965).

Richter,G. (1965) Tante Marianne [Oil on canvas 120cm x 130cm]. Galerie Nueue Meister, Dresden, Germany.
I have seen this picture twice; once in Dresden while on a camping holiday in 2011 and also at the Gerhard Richter/Panorama exhibition at the Tate Modern in 2011. 
i was profoundly moved by this image and the issues and times behind the painting.
