Abstract
The text is a review of Rafał Żytyńc’s Ełk in Gisela and Klaus Skibowski’s Camera, a bilingual volume (with the German version by Winfried Lipscher) published by the Museum of History in Ełk. Apart from the historical commentary the book contains the photographs taken by Gisela and Klaus Skibowski, which originally constituted a reportage of a four-day trip to Poland in 1957. The reviewer comments on the numerous problems discussed by Żytyńc: the history of (attempted) bilateral relations between Poland and West Germany from 1955 to 1958, visits to Poland made by journalists and tourists from West Germany after 1956, the history of Skibowski family against the history of Ełk, and the details of Gisela’s and Klaus’s trip. The reviewed book is also an official catalogue of the exhibition organized the Museum of History in Ełk, in a narrow-gauge railway area, on 25 July 2015.
