EDITORS COMMENTS
Scenes in East Berlin, four years after work began on the construction of the Berlin Wall, separating East from West. This print takes us back to 26th May 1965, offering a glimpse into the divided city during the height of the Cold War. The image captures a view towards the iconic Brandenburg Gate, standing as a solemn witness to the stark division between two worlds. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see an eerily quiet street scene marred by tension and surveillance. Police officers and guards patrol diligently along what was once a bustling thoroughfare connecting both sides of Berlin. The atmosphere is palpable; it reflects not only physical separation but also emotional detachment. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how political ideologies can shape landscapes and lives. It encapsulates the struggles faced by those living under communist rule in East Germany (GDR), where restrictions on movement were enforced with vigilance. Ron Burton's lens skillfully captures history unfolding before our eyes – an enduring testament to human resilience amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this poignant moment captured over half a century ago, let us reflect on how far we have come since then and cherish our hard-won freedoms.
