          Gestapo Informer Recognized by a Woman She Had Denounced

          1945 photograph by Henri Cartier-Bresson

          Gestapo Informer Recognized by a Woman She Had Denounced, full title Gestapo Informer Recognized by a Woman She Had Denounced, Deportation Camp, Dessau, Germany, is a black and white photograph taken by Henri Cartier-Bresson in 1945.

          It is one of the most famous post-World War II pictures.[1]

          History and description

          While working for the French Army's film and photography unit, Cartier-Bresson was caught by the Germans and became a prisoner of war in June 1940.

          In 1943, his third escape attempt was successful, and with the help of forged papers, he managed to flee to France.

          After the end of World War II in Europe, in May 1945, he was assigned by the American Office of War Information to do a documentary about French prisoners of war and refugees, which would be Le Retour.[2] This picture was taken at the Dessau deportation camp, in East Germany,
