This richly illustrated publication presents masterpieces of street photography from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day from the collections of the Wien Museum: impressive street scenes, intimate snapshots, and fleeting candid images of urban life. En passant, these images also tell the story of a rapidly changing metropolis. They capture the hustle and bustle of the city on its streets, squares, and markets, capture unexpected encounters, and document moments of decel-eration and pleasure. The photobook draws a new, suggestive por-trait of the metropolis on the Danube and invites the reader on an exciting photographic journey of discovering.
