Moscow, Russia, 1997 Photograph by Gerd Ludwig Pedestrians bundled
against the Moscow chill push through plazas dotted with storefronts
touting luxury goods. In spite of recent high oil prices and an
expanding middle class, Russia still suffers from inflation,
corruption, and an unstable banking system, making high-end goods
unreachable to all but Russia's elite.

(Photograph shot on assignment for, but not published in, "Moscow: The
New Revolution," April 1997, National Geographic magazine)    RELATED
