Inspirational Photo of IS2 – Berlin 1945

A friend posted this photograph and I am totally entranced by it. I am pretty sure it is, as he stated Berlin 1945 (although I stand open to corrections). It shows that even in cities there are big open spaces. Perhaps it is false colour, but I love the details. The crazy Ivan to the left of the ISII tanks on a bicycle, soldiers just standing around (so not a direct combat photo – which makes sense to me). Civilian vehicles, abandoned and people just milling around in the background. The wheels (bottom left) presumably of a Russian infantry support gun or „something“ in the middle of the street! (see below, absolute chaos – but a lovely composition for a diorama):   

It inspired me to take a look at my late war Soviet armour (in 20mm) as I have a couple of IS2s. A scenario beckons.
