About this product

Product Information

Paris in the summer of 1937. A giant funeral procession wends its way from the city centre eastward toward the Pere-Lachaise Cemetery, accompanied by the sounds of Chopin's Marche funebre. The photojournalist Gerda Taro had been killed in the Spanish Civil War a few days earlier. Thousands come to pay their last respects to the emigree from Hitler's Germany. The poet Louis Aragon speaks at the graveside, young girls hold up a large portrait of the deceased. Why did the French Communist Party honour a foreigner - one who was not even a member of the Party - with a first-class burial? Taro is considered one of the path-breaking pioneers of photography. She captured some of the most dramatic and widely published images of the Spanish Civil War and was the first female photographer to shoot images in the midst of battle. Her willingness to work close to the fighting set new standards for war photography and ultimately cost her her life. Taro stands alongside early 20th century war photographers like Robert Capa and David Chim Seymour.

    Communication Prior to Buying was Responsive and Quick. However, having been Reassured that My Order would be Delivered by 'Local Postal Service', it Arrived by Private Courier. The Delivery itself took 25 Days to Arrive. Although it was Delivered before the Estimated Delivery Date, Locally Based Orders Shouldn't have to Take So Long to be Delivered. The New Item Arrived in Excellent Condition as Described. A Satisfying Buy at a Great Value Price but CS Advice Should've been More Reliable.
