Berlin Wall: Brezhnev & Honecker Kissing

Berlin Wall: Brezhnev & Honecker Kissing Painting

One of the best-known paintings on the Berlin Wall in the East Side Gallery is the kiss between Brezhnev and Honecker. Soviet leaders had the odd habit of kissing on the mouth as greeting at some meetings.

The German translates as My God, help me, to survive this deadly love.
