(Portrait of IWATA Oribe) (岩田織部像)

HORI Yohee 堀与兵衛

We can compare before and after to see how tinting a photograph, a post-shoot process, changes it. At first glance, it seems that these photographs differ only in whether color has been added to them. On closer inspection, we note, for instance, how the relationship between the subject and the folding screen changes and that the pupils have not been retouched in the colored photo. Those differences lead to the conclusion that these prints were created from different negatives made at almost the same time.

The Laotian Incursion was intended to lure the North Vietnams forces into battle by invading neighboring Laos, which had become a sanctuary and supply route for the NLF and the North Vietnamese army. It ended in complete failure. In the middle of battle, a government soldier flees, carrying a wounded soldier on his back
