Description

German propaganda photograph captured by the RAF.
RAF Caption:
"1990/2 Life goes on – After a terror attack on a big city.
The pulsating life of the big city hardly shows and interruption after a night of heavy bombing. The traffic stream crowds through the often still smoke laden streets. Everyone hurries to their places of work and no-one cares about what had happened; within themselves, however, they are full of blind hatred and understandable anger."

The photograph is of a group of German businessmen and women carrying bags and brief cases walking purposefully as if going to work. The buildings they are approaching have sustained heavy bomb damage.
