Selections from the Collection: War and Conflict
Since the invention of photography, the documentation of war has been a subject of interest to the camera and consumers. People have long relied on photographs to view and grapple with the harsh realities of war and conflict, whether by purchasing a copy of Gardner’s Photographic Sketchbook of the War (1866), armchair traveling with stereocards to No Man’s Land of World War I (1914–18), or seeing the destruction of 9/11 on the cover of Time magazine.
