Photos of Moscow and Surroundings by Marc Riboud, 1960s

Posted on by

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!

    Станислав, предпоследняя фотография никак не может быть 1967 года, пакеты МТС GSM И “АШАН удар по ценам” в руках у бабок.
    исправьте год.

    There are no offi­cers on the 2nd pic­ture. These are pri­vate sol­diers.
    It was Lenin AND Stalin Mau­soleum at the time, right?
    And the Rev­o­lu­tion was called the Great Octo­ber Social­ist Rev­o­lu­tion, not a Soviet Rev­o­lu­tion.
    Could use a bit more atten­tion to detail. Other than that, really nice pic­tures. Thanks!
