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.⁠ ⁠ PHOTOS (left to right):⁠ ⁠ (1) Prague. 1968. © Marilyn Silverstone / Magnum Photos⁠ ⁠ (2) Celebration following the inauguration of Václav Havel as President. 1989. © @ianberrymagnum / Magnum Photos⁠ ⁠ (3) Prague. 1968. © Marilyn Silverstone / Magnum Photos⁠ ⁠ (4) Prague. 1968. © Marilyn Silverstone / Magnum Photos⁠ ⁠ (5) New years celebrations in Wenceslas Square.

Josef Koudelka, a Magnum Photographer, famously captured the moments in 68 as well.

Comunisti allora come oggi Putin, invasori oppressori, l' unica cosa che sanno fare è la guerra.

We all belong to either one of them and nothing wrong with that😛 lately I have been trying to balance between being observant and present vs shooting for content Always a beautiful time coming back to Hong Kong with @peninsulahotels , more art and elegance with their global art programme #ArtinResonance. The unparalleled artistry of “Lunar Rainbow” — a large-scale celestial-themed installation on the facade, “She’s Bestowed Love” — a red textile work in The Lobby, and “The Flow Pavilion” — a one-way glass structure within a Zen Garden. If you're in town, be the main character and do yourself a favour to check out "Lunar Rainbow" and "She's Bestowed Love" - both will be exhibiting till May. #PenMoments

Hello, Tokyo ! It’s good to be back 🌸🚋 The Toden Arakawa (aka Tokyo Sakura Tram) is the last tram line in the city. Along the tram line you can see cherry blossoms and visit a cute tram museum! Just remember the museum is only open on weekends/ holidays 🫶🏻
