PHOTOGRAPHY BY ROBERT CAPA (1913-1954) ¿QUE HACES TU PARA / EVITAR ESTO? 1937. 31 1/2x22 inches, 80x56 cm. Ministerio de Propaganda, Spain. Condition A-: minor tears at edges; minor creases and abrasions in margins and image and along vertical and horizontal folds. Paper. From the photograph by the famous war photographer Robert Capa, this is one of the most striking posters created to rally support for the Republican cause in the Spanish Civil War. Similar in color scheme and theme to Picasso's Guernica painted the same year, this black-and-white photomontage of a mother and child crouching in terror underneath a sky filled with Nazi bombers ask the question, "What are you doing to prevent this?" Printed in Spanish, French and English, this propaganda poster acts as a sobering reminder of how the atrocities of war often harm the most innocent. This is the Spanish version. Palette 13, Fotoplakate p. 27, Plakat Kunst p. 138 (var), Berman p. 100 (var).
