Description
Unidentified exterior view of what appears to be ruins located on a hill. According to Charles Thayer's curriculum vitae: "In 1955 I made an extended tour of European and Asiatic Russia and wrote a series for the Saturday Evening Post on post-Stalinist Soviet Union." Although not identified, this photograph is believed to have been taken during that trip. While in Uzbekistan, Thayer visited Tashkent, Samarkand, and Bukhara.
