A 1920s black and white photo of a weathered man in a thick raccoon coat standing amidst urban rubble, observing street reconstruction.

A 1920s documentary snapshot of a relief coordinator observing urban reconstruction. Captured on a Zeiss Ikon folding plate camera, the orthochromatic glass plate renders the sky stark white and deepens the warm tones of his weathered face, while the uncoated Tessar lens yields an authentic, slight edge softness.
