As Seen By Others > Ilka's Photo Album > Ilka at the Berlin Wall

"Ilka Hartmann, a German citizen who once taught photography in Berlin, returned to the city a day after the wall was opened last month. As new holes were cut in the wall, East Germans poured through. Ms. Hartmann said the astonished visitors kept saying "Crazy", as they marveled at West Berlin. Several embraced her.

...Here East German Border Police watch Ms. Hartmann from in front of the famous Brandenburg Gate." (photographer unknown)
