Photography provides a snapshot of what has happened in history. It captures events that have shaped the world we live in.

Some photographs also show the anguish of people during challenging times. The despair of Marilyn Lovell, wife Apollo 13s commander Jim Lovell and a little girl holding her doll after a London bombing in 1940, are all too visceral reminders of the human condition.\r
