    Many people have asked for Nietzsche, but I held off til I could get him right. He is a hard guy to get right...maybe Walter Kaufmann is one of the few. I knew his daughter, who went blind as well (from he STD that killed him) and never knew who her father was.... we only found out when Else Kryger, her neighbor and caregiver on Arhusvej in Randers, DK read her birth certificate, signed with the well-known signature of FN, whose bust you can see here. His head is ALMOST full size, but his mustache leaves something lacking....I wanted to sculpt his chin.
