Old Moscow

Naum Granovsky is perhaps one of the most famous Soviet photographer who spent almost 60 years as a photojournalist TASS. He began to take Moscow with 20s, and thanks to his photographs, we can see today, it looked like the capital of Russia for almost a hundred years ago!

The last part can be found here exemplary Soviet photography. I love the imagery of Granovsky consider Moscow. What were the sidewalks, streets and what friends since childhood places. His photographs, but rather a documentary recording of all changes in Moscow for half a century, so it is necessary to treat it as a document and not to the work of the artist.
