Chargesheimer - Unter Krahnenbäumen, Greven, 1958, Köln

 

Hardcover, cloth bound with dustjacket. Including a text by Heinrich Böll.

"If Cologne intime took the whole city for its subject, Unter Krahnenbäumen narrowed its gaze on a single street in the Old Town. A street that was densely built-up, in whose facades the air war had torn gaps and whose inhabitants, adults, children and the old, followed a daily round of hard work. The photographs of the people and of the place have something tender about them. The viewer senses an affection for this form of life. Here sacks of coal are brought into the cellar. Women help each other carry home bags bulging with potatoes. Here people lie on cushions on the windowsill and look at their neighbours pursuing their work in the street. The street is the stage of life. And with his camera Chargesheimer captures the play Everyday Life in Cologne. Work and effort. Drunks and lovers, church festivals and pub parties." (photoeye.com)
