The story behind this historic photo of the Romanian revolution
During the dramatic fall of Nicolae Ceausescu’s regime in December 1989, Reuters photographer Radu Sigheti captured the raw energy and uncertainty of the revolution. Sigheti photographed the vast crowds in Bucharest from the same balcony where Ceausescu had addressed the nation just a day earlier. Despite limited resources and fierce fighting, Reuters secured a transmission line, ensuring their images reached the world — offering a rare, unfiltered view of a dictatorship’s final hours.
