Vase of flowers with reflected street scene, Berlin c. 1930

A vase of daisies stands in the foreground of a shop window, while its glass reflects a passer-by in a wide-brimmed hat and the passing street traffic. Such artfully composed shots were part of the repertoire of cameramen who captured Berlin's city life not only documentarily but also pictorially. The reflection intertwines shop window display and street scene into a double image of the consumer and everyday world of the late Weimar Republic.
