Beskrivning:

A page displaying three World War I photographs, two of which contain elements incorporated into the third, together with notes. Noted Australian photographer Frank Hurley took the component photographs and blended them into the composite image. He was horrified by what he witnessed during the war and sought to portray his disgust and horror in such a way that his audience would feel it too. Since he could not always convey this with one negative, he combined elements of two or more photographs – a technique that was especially popular among professional photographers at the time. Some have considered the practice as an art form; others argued that history demanded the plain, simple truth.

The images are available separately as:
