East and West: Color photographs of Moscow and New York in 1969

Categories: History

In 1969, it was hard to imagine a more different life than in two major cities - New York and Moscow. The embodiment of capitalism on one side of the ocean and the heart of communist ideology on the other. Hippies, pacifists, civil rights activists and preachers are the faces of New York at that time, and the faces of Moscow are pioneers, scientists, intellectuals, ordinary workers and employees. But there is an atmosphere of youth, enthusiasm and great faith in the future. In both countries, they tried to make the world a better place for everyone, but in their own way. If there was a time machine, which of these two cities would you go to? On the left - Moscow, on the right - New York.
