This is our second post devoted to the outstanding French photographer Marc Riboud who traveled extensively throughout the Soviet Union in the 1960s. His images captured an array of everyday life episodes from the lives of the Soviet people - today it is a collection of images of people out in the streets. The first lot can be found here. As always, click on the magnifying glass to see the photos in detail.

Please follow us on twitter and stay tuned. Thank you!
