The first one is the picture of rising flag over Iwo-Jima.The picture was shot by Joe Rosenthal in the moment when six sodiers rose the American flags in the mountain Suribachi of Iwo-Jima island-which is one of the most important moment in WWII . It gave signal of final glory for the American army. You guys can actually learn more about the story of this images in the film " Flag of our father"(it is an excellent film by the way).It is first used by The U.S goverment for a war fund .As you can see there are so many versions of one photo. These versions talk about so many completely different things (war, politics ,globalization, global warming),still they all used just one icon.
The second image I want to show you is the most famous photo in the history.The photo of Che,which was shot by Alberto Korda in 1960 ,with which Che not only become an icon but a maxism saint(I call him the sexy saint). This image is like Mona Lisa in the field of painting. It inspire so many artist and can be seen in any place in Cuba and a some other South America countries in the present time.In Vietnam you can find a T-shirt with this image easily.
Finally I just want to show you guys how much photography can affect to other field of art and design.
