The Spanish Civil War was documented quite well by a range of photographers, and some of the images have become icons of 20th century photojournalism. This particular collection contains 99 photographs that are part of the Spanish Civil War Collection held at Mandeville Special Collections Library at the University of California, San Diego. The photos were taken by photographers attached to various news photography agencies, and they can be browsed chronologically, geographically, or thematically by people or war damage. First-time visitors should read the extended introductory essay by Matt Crawford, as it provides some nice background on the war, the place of photographers during the conflict, and an emerging "photojournalism" sensibility. There are a number of compelling images here, and visitors might want to check out the photographs of political demonstrators to start their journey.
