Globe staff photo by John Tlumacki


Nov. 10, 1989, at the Brandenburg Gate.

Twenty years ago, the Globe dispatched photographer John Tlumacki to Germany to capture the fall of the Berlin Wall, as East and West Germans celebrated the crumbling of the Cold War icon.

Tlumacki has assembled a gallery of photographs from that week -- work that made him a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 1990.
