A hand places flowers at a tomb dedicated to the unknown soldier. Quiet gestures of remembrance like this were part of public memorial culture in Weimar-era Berlin, honoring the millions who fell in the First World War. In 1931 the Neue Wache on Unter den Linden, built by Karl Friedrich Schinkel, had been rededicated as the central memorial to the war dead, and similar monuments arose in many German cities during this period. The modest shot stands for the enduring grief and politically charged memory of the lost war.
