Moscow Unseen [A photographic tribute to Soviet life]
In 1956, one year after the peace treaty between Russia and Germany, Peter Bock-Schroeder was the first West German photographer to be permitted to visit the former USSR for a photo reportage.
Photographic records reach their full significance in historical moments. "The Soviets" has become one of Bock-Schroeder’s most important and poignant reportages.
Bock-Schroeder's journey took him through the huge space of the former Soviet republics - from the Central Asian Countries to the Transcaucasian Countries, from the Baltic States to European Russia.
Have you ever wondered what Moscow looked like more than 60 years ago?
