Great image caption/keywording detail in this collection! above shows: Romy Schneider and Harry Meyen strolling along Straße des 17. Juni in Berlin-Tiergarten, in front of the Victory Column and toward the Brandenburg Gate, in late April 1965. Both are elegantly dressed, Schneider wearing a coat and gloves, Meyen a suit and sunglasses. Schneider laughs heartily as they walk side by side across the sidewalk.
Just posting this from my daily photo licensing industry news site Photo Archive News for interest to researchers:
German based photo library United Archives has acquired the Sven Simon Photo Archive which includes many unseen photographs of the Federal Republic era – commonly known as West Germany from 1949 to 1990.
Photographer Axel Springer Jr., better known as Sven Simon, was the most significant photographer of the Federal Republic of Germany and left behind an extraordinary photographic legacy despite his early death – one that captures the history of West Germany as vividly as few others.
United Archives is now making images accessible that have so far received little public attention: both iconic and previously unknown motifs, intimate insights into the lives of celebrities, quiet observations of historic events—a multifaceted and ambivalent view of the Federal Republic.
