These photographs show street scenes in Trier around 1970 – faces of passers-by, captured in the moment of passing.
These are not representative portraits, but everyday faces that speak of effort, serenity, or contemplation. The black-and-white photography reinforces the documentary character: wrinkles, glances, clothing, and posture speak their own language.
In retrospect, these images are more than snapshots – they are visual testimonies to an era in which post-war generations, the beginning of a prosperous society, and individual life stories intersect.
