Photography

Robert Capa was a Hungarian-born photographer who documented major twentieth-century conflicts, including the Spanish Civil War, World War II, and the First Indochina War. Working with a 35mm Leica camera, he developed a distinctive approach to war photography that prioritized proximity and immediacy over detached observation. His images from the D-Day landings remain among the most iconic photographs of World War II. Capa co-founded Magnum Photos in 1947, establishing a cooperative model for independent photojournalism that became influential in postwar visual culture.
