Shovelling sand onto the conveyor, Berlin 1937

At the bottom of a sandy excavation half a dozen men shovel earth onto the lower end of a steep conveyor, which carries it up and out of the pit; a bus and a car pass along the road at the top, and the long brick facade of the office building fills the background. In January 1937 Hitler named Albert Speer inspector-general of building for the capital, with orders to turn Berlin into a monumental city; the everyday digging on its streets went on in the same way as before.
