About 

Published jointly by Steidl and the International Center of Photography, New York to accompany the landmark exhibition held there in 2011. The rediscovery of the negatives in 2007 was considered one of the most important archival recoveries in modern photography and illustrates how Capa, Taro, and Chim fundamentally shaped modern photojournalism through their emotionally immediate and politically engaged coverage of the Spanish Civil War. The archive demonstrates the emergence of the modern photographic essay and combat reportage.
