That all changed on the night of 21 August, when Soviet tanks entered Prague, ending the short-lived political liberalization in Czechoslovakia. 'I wasn’t a reporter,' Koudelka recalls. 'I had never photographed anything that you would call \"\"news\"\". Suddenly, for the first time in my life, I was confronted with that kind of situation. I responded to it. I knew it was important to photograph, so I photographed.' \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor fear of repercussions, Koudelka originally published the images under the pseudonym 'PP' (Prague photographer). The intensity and significance of the images earned the still-anonymous photographer the Robert Capa Gold Medal Award. Sixteen years would pass before Koudelka could safely acknowledge authorship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow reissued in a hardback format, this bold new edition will bring these vital photographs back to the public eye, standing as a stark reminder of the importance of bearing witness to violence and brutality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44146559975467,"sku":"9780500029237","price":799.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0635\/3033\/6299\/files\/81TD_DDGyhL._SL1500.jpg?v=1780957870","url":"https:\/\/bokeriet.no\/products\/invasion-prague-68","provider":"Bokeriet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
