A policewoman directs traffic with a flag

In the middle of a wide crossroads a policewoman in a long dark coat with a belt and a peaked cap stands with her right arm stretched out, a small flag in her hand; behind her rise the facades of damaged tenement houses, a few pedestrians cross the empty street, and a tram waits in the distance. The source places the scene on the Albertplatz, where German women traffic police directed the traffic with flags.
