Abstract
Briefly about the history of war photography with special regard to the collection from the period of the World War I located in the Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen
The author of the article focuses on the description of war photography which she classifies as journal photography. She points out that the development of this type of photography was considerably influenced by social photography. She argues that the image of unnecessary human suffering shows the senselessness and injustice of war which are strongly accentuated in photographs. Such emphasis affects emotions, compels the receiver to reflection and performs a propaganda function at the same time. On selected examples, the author presents the historical, documentary and artistic value of war photographs. She devotes a separate part of the article to the description of the beginnings of the Polish journal photography.
