Women clean bricks outside the Air Ministry

Before the long, sober stone facade of a great office building, whose upper windows are empty, a row of women sits on the ground with hammers and scrapers, cleaning old mortar from bricks; the cleaned bricks stand in neat stacks along the pavement, and men and women pass by beside a timber fence. The source identifies the Air Ministry in the Wilhelmstrasse under repair, with German women workers scraping rescued bricks.
