Peter Brüchmann is well-known for his impressive photographic insights into life in Berlin in the early 1960s. The present picture was taken at the border crossing point at the famous Stalin Avenue which is called 'Karl-Marx-Allee' today and is still seen as a relic of Stalinism. A large protest sign is captured on the left, but seems also perfectly fitted into the overall composition of the image. As seen here, Brüchmann was not only interested in the pure message of a photograph, but was also very keen to emphasize the formal aesthetic approach. The print is verso fitted with the photographer's stamp and the gallery stamp 'GRAUWERT'. The work is professionally matted and in very good condition. The image size is 35.3 x 35.3 cm and the size of the sheet is 50.8 x 40.8 cm.
