Show and Tell: Thomas Struth's Berlin
Dwarfed. That's how you feel in Berlin a lot of the time.
Dwarfed by the immense buildings which loom up above the lime trees
on Unter den Linden or line the wide boulevards of Prenzlauer Berg.
Dwarfed by the enormous number of memorials and world-class
museums, sometimes three, four, five to a single street, each
commemorating a different chapter of the city's history. Dwarfed,
most of all, by the sheer weight of that history, which infuses
every place name, lurks under every pavement and hangs heavy in the
air.
