Figures in formation under searchlights, 1937

Beams from a bank of searchlights cut diagonally through the night onto the stadium field, where white-clad figures stand in a long rectangle like a living frame; inside it riders and acrobats move at a racing pace, and the formation shifts as the light sweeps across it. Massed evening displays with light, horses and gymnastics had become a speciality of the regime's festivals since Albert Speer's cathedral of light at the Nuremberg rally of 1936.
