Sparks and flashes of light from a fireworks display reflect on the dark water, while the silhouette of a festively illuminated stage or boat structure appears in the foreground. Such water spectacles were part of Berlin's entertainment industry in the 1930s, which used dazzling illuminations to draw crowds. The brief shot belongs to a series of images of Berlin nightlife, which offered a dense mix of variety shows, nightclubs and open-air attractions.
