Dmitri Baltermants was a Russian photographer whose black-and-white work documented the Soviet experience across six decades, from the 1930s through the 1990s. He photographed the German invasion of the Soviet Union and its aftermath with formal precision and emotional restraint, creating some of the era's most significant war imagery. His later work turned toward portraiture and landscape, maintaining a documentary sensibility grounded in the materiality of film and darkroom printing.
