Witness History: #3 - Car crash in Washington D.C / 1921

Washington D.C. 1921


Todays picture shows the scene of a car crash in Washington DC. It is utmost interesting to see how colors can change our perception of a scene, especially in photographs from a time that we rarely get to experience in color. The whole atmosphere of this candid shot seems so realistic and used to, but still the subject tells a different story. It is always good to remind ourselves that, back in the day, not everything was just black and white.
