In this photo taken in August 1917, provided by Russian State Archive of Social and Political History, Vladimir Lenin, disguised by being clean-shaven, as he hid out in a village near Razliv railway station, 35 kilometers north-west of St. Petersburg, Russia. The 1917 Bolshevik Revolution was long before the digital revolution allowed anyone to instantly document events. But the clumsy cameras of the time still caught some images that capture the period's drama. (Photo by Russian State Documentary Film and Photo Archive via AP Photo)
