- As we already know, Robert Capa, “Death of a Loyalist Soldier” is consider the greastest war photograph of all time. A photograph that was taking during the Spanish Civil War and is also considered one of the most famous photographs. When I first saw this photographs, I thought it was fake because of the way the soldier fall into the grass. I think thats the reason why many different authors have different views and controversy about the photograph. In addition to this, from my point of view this photograph is staged because of the way the soldier is holding the gun on his hand when he is going to the grass. As well this image is convicing because share many similitaries with other soldier falling and he is giving as well a lot of information. In conclusion, I think the authencity do not matter because at the end of the day everybody have different opinions and people always will judge and also they will look for a simple detail to make everything hard for others.
