Returning from his enforced exile in America after the fall of the Soviet Union, Alexander Solzhenitsyn crossed Russia by train from its eastern Pacific shore to Moscow, stopping on his way in many places, including Krasnoyarsk, the major city in the Central Siberia.
William Sokolenko (well known photographer in Krasnoyarsk) organized for Mr. Solzhenitsyn a personal tour of the famous Stolby National Park, where the exhibited photo portrait was taken.
IMHO this portrait of Solzhenitsyn is one of the best.
