Untitled (Overhead view of men conversing on street) c. 1920s

This anonymous photograph, taken around the 1920s, captures a candid moment on a city street. An overhead perspective shows three men engaged in conversation, possibly a casual encounter or a business meeting. The composition is simple, but the starkness of the urban environment and the fleeting nature of the scene create a sense of timelessness, making it a compelling snapshot of everyday life in the early 20th century. The image is a small, yet powerful testament to the importance of capturing spontaneous moments, a key element of early street photography.
