Magnum Photos
In 1968, days after Soviet tanks invaded the streets of Prague, Marilyn Silverstone arrived in the city, documenting tension and resistance in vivid color. More than two decades later, @ianberrymagnum returned to photograph the 1989 Velvet Revolution, witnessing the dawn of a new era for the people of the country 🇨🇿 These images form part of the first reveal for A World in Color, a project in partnership with Fujifilm and @mpatrimphoto to digitize unseen color slides from the Magnum Paris archive. Czechia marks the first stop for the project, with further reveals to follow throughout the year, each focusing on a different country in Europe. 🔗 Learn more about the reveal at the link in the @magnumphotos bio.
