Description

Text auch englisch. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - The well-known St. Petersburg photojournalist Sergei Kompaniychenko has �co-authored� this photo album with Karl Bulla, a pioneer of photo reporting in Russia. The several-year work is based on the original idea: to take a view of Petersburg exactly from the same positions from which Karl Bulla�s camera once �looked� at the city. What changes have taken place in the last hundred years in the great city that went through several revolutions and the war, experienced rebuilding, reconstruction and all sorts of alterations? Alas, as it turns out, the changes were not always for the better. But without the watchful eye of the photographer and the opportunity to put the archive photographs and the new ones side by side most probably we would have never known this. ISBN 9785990154513
