that drawing was made after reading some stuff about Leo Strauss. It's not a portrait of the guy at all but more an interpretation of a picture I had seen of this intellectual who had such a bad influence in the modern world. He is one of the father of the neo-con policy that is so much hype in the american way to rule the World.
He escaped Nazis persecutions by flying to the USA where he set up his philosophy saying, basically, that people are so dumb to get involved into politic, therefore, they should be governed by a class of "elite" who will know what is better to rule the country (Isn't it the situation we are living in ? ).
