The Völkerschlachtdenkmal in the haze, Leipzig 1937

Through a morning haze the huge stepped mass of the Völkerschlachtdenkmal rises in silhouette between two trees beyond a wide open space, while cyclists and pedestrians pass small in the foreground. The monument, 91 metres high, was dedicated in October 1913 on the centenary of the Battle of the Nations, in which Napoleon was defeated at Leipzig; the Kaiser attended, less than a year before the outbreak of war.
