#VIIIDistrict

Budapest, 1966. A man stops to look at his watch while standing by a "no stopping" sign. Another illustration perhaps that cities are designed for cars and traffic, and less for people who are pushed to margins of footpaths.

A old man man, wearing a cap, and with a pipe in his mouth, stops on the footpath to look at his watch, while standing by a sign that reads, "It is forbidden to stop".

Budapest, 1937. Life was hard for many in Hungary during the 1930's, especially the working class. The sign above the door, in this working-class part of Budapest, says "Wine" and down the side "Wine/Beer". If he could afford it, this man certainly deserves either for his labours.

A man in a cloth cap, a cigarette in his mouth, is pushing a two-wheeled cart along a snow-covered street in Budapest in 1937. In the background is a building with a sign above the corner door that says, in Hungarian, Bor, which translates as "beer". Down the side of the door is a sign that says Bor Sör, which translates as "Beer Wine".
