Black and white photography, exterior photograph, double portrait, with tanker truck with pendant, February 1959 Double portrait, full figure, standing, front view, tanker truck At a distance two men stand on a wide terrain (car park). They stand close to each other and have each placed the arm on the shoulder of the other. The younger man standing on the right from the viewer supports the left fist in the side, his right leg crosses the left leg and he leans slightly against the shoulder of the left, smaller and older man. The younger one has something of a blessing in himself. The elder already has a bald forehead, he lets the right arm hang loosely on his side. Both smile towards the camera. It seems familiar, friendly between the two. The men wear dark tops, the younger one a cardigan, the older one a sweater, dark gray pants and solid shoes. Behind the two is a large tanker truck with trailer (3 wheels on each side), from front to right in the back. The men stand next to the tanker’s large, elongated cab. In the front, there is a sign at the bottom of the cab: Freight traffic No. 199, Berlin location. A series of high poplars stretches behind the load train. To the left, the outlines of a large round building are clearly visible. The scene looks winter, foggy, there is a thin layer of snow on the ground. Ch. K.
