This photo shows the French singer Gilbert Bécaud during a concert in East Berlin in 1964. In the image, Bécaud is captured in a dramatic moment, standing on stage and reaching upwards with his right arm, his fingers forming a sharp, expressive gesture. He is dressed in a dark suit, accentuated by a white shirt cuff. His face is turned upwards, seemingly caught in an intense emotional performance. The stark contrast of his figure against the deep black background highlights the emotional energy of the moment, which was characteristic of Bécaud's passionate and dynamic stage presence.

His camera knew no bounds: from the dazzling stars of East German show business like Phudys, Karat, Hildegard Kneef, Manfred Krug, Bubi Scholz, to international greats such as Dean Reed, Karel Gott, Jiri Korn, and Costa Cordalis – all found themselves in front of his lens.
