EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures a poignant moment at the Berlin Wall Memorial, located in the heart of Bernauer Strasse, Berlin. As visitors from all corners of the globe gather to pay their respects and reflect on this historic world event, two individuals stand amidst the remnants of what was once a symbol of separation and division. The image showcases the resilience of human spirit against a backdrop of towering trees and an expansive sky filled with fluffy clouds. The city's urban scene serves as a reminder that even in bustling capital cities like Berlin, history is ever-present. Both men and women can be seen exploring this famous place, each person carrying their own story and connection to German culture. A woman wearing a hat stands beside a man with a backpack, both engrossed in contemplation as they navigate through grassy patches where rusted sections of the surrounding wall still remain. As we gaze upon this photograph by Frank Fell/robertharding, we are reminded not only of Germany's past but also its ability to heal wounds inflicted by separation. This memorial stands as an enduring testament to unity and serves as an important tourist destination for those seeking to understand our shared history.
