Ernst Haas’ Depiction of a Soldier Coming Home

History Daily

Ernst Haas is a photographer that has made a name for himself for his beautiful and powerful depictions of life, with much of his work over the past 40 years showed scenes from World War II. He created a photo essay aptly named “Homecoming,” showing the aftermath of a long and cruel war and those that were forced to suffer through it. While he found widespread popularity for his work, receiving a bunch of job opportunities afterwards, he turned them down saying, “What I want is to stay free, so that I can carry out my ideas… I don’t think there are many editors who could give me the assignments I give myself.”
