Our collective memory of the years 1941–1945 exists largely in monochrome, because that is how most people experienced it—and continue to see it—in the films and photographs of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour film for both motion pictures and still photography was already available, but it was not widely used due to its fragility and the difficulties involved in processing it. Nevertheless, a number of pioneering photographers took early colour film into the war, and their images have survived remarkably well, offering a very different perspective on the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance, these photographs can be surprising; we are not accustomed to seeing the people, places, and events of the early 1940s in full colour. However, they gradually feel entirely natural, and they help bring the Second World War into a more immediate and relatable form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume presents a vivid colour record of the conflict through over 200 photographs, taken largely by amateur photographers—ordinary soldiers, sailors, and airmen who sought to document and preserve their experiences during the largest conflict in world history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeffrey Ethell, Chuck Yeager, Bud Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54007221584218,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/image2_4d60038b-1a06-46de-9c2e-e685c57ed6e2.jpeg?v=1776507011","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/there-once-was-a-war","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
