Details
Brandenburg Gate in Potsdam, Germany [German Empire], is a large, sculpted, concrete structure with three arched gateways at the base, the middle gate is the tallest and widest, and statues of soldiers and flags across the top. There is a streetlight standing between each gate opening. The Roman numerals "MDCCLXX" are carved above the central gateway. The gate is attached to one-story buildings on either side. A steeple-type structure is visible through the center gate at the end of a foggy street with buildings on each side of the street. In white ink toward the bottom right-hand corner of the photograph is, "PA2."
