Normandy Landing on D-Day | Robert Capa

A chilling image of United States Infantrymen landing on the beach during the famed D-Day invasion of Normandy. Aptly codenamed Neptune, this operation was the largest ever performed by the US Coast Guard. This blurred action shot does well to evoke the chaos and surreal nature of the event.

For his work capturing this photo and others during WWII, Capa was awarded the Medal of Freedom by president Dwight D. Eisenhower.

These Capa images of the D-Day invasion are treasured parts of any collection, and as such rarely come up for sale.

Print is on 8x10" photographic paper. It bears editorial markings on the text part of printed area. Also has minor edge/corner wear, none of which come close to affecting printed area.
