Uwe Steinberg utilized photography as an autonomous medium, even within the constraints of a socialist context. His extensive body of work, spanning various themes such as labor, daily life in the former GDR, and portraits of youths, serves as a testament to his discerning choice of subjects and his mastery of composition techniques. The image offered here was used in part on the cover of the book "Der Schimmel mit den blauen Augen". – A few light handling dents, small creases in upper corners, otherwise in very good condition.
