【 摘 要 】

This paper focuses on some of David Seymour “Chim”’s photographs from the Spanish Civil War, to discuss the formation of a very political iconology. Driven by left and anti-fascist agendas, Chim reached for a specific imagetic vocabulary, which was being formed in that period and was going to cause an impact in contemporary visual culture, especially in documental photography.
