Arne Lind's day in Bucharest

Arne Lind spent one day in Bucharest sometime in April '74, part of a group of 10-15 Swedes who were invited on a Romanian Ministry of Culture sponsored trip to Romania. Here are some of his images taken that day, a rare glimpse into how the city and its people looked those days... I absolutely love all the images but the one with the ice blocks delivery really brings back memories.



















More images from Arne's visit here. And don't forget to check his website.

Superbe imaginile, iar acelea cu blocurile de gheata intr-adevar ca trezeste senzatii tari romanesti :D

Poate mi se pare mie, dar din imaginile postate parca totul era mai calm, mai linistit, mai curat...

frumoase imaginile. intr-adevar totul era mai linistit, nu neaparat mai curat, dar mai linistit pentru ca romania traia in dictatura si numeni nu isi permitea sa comenteze. acum traim in libertate, libertatea este zgomotoasa si uneori vulgara.

Mai curat, dar si mai gri. Ce urat era imbracata majoritatea!
