NOTE:
Photographic print on which the artist intervened with glazes based on water, vinegar, ammonia and aniline in different colours, creating a filter that transparently displays the image of a young man, eyes downcast, putting up no resistance to the uniformed soldiers escorting him. This panel was part of a group of five photographs on board from the same reportage, differing in subject and chromaticity (inv. 1006).
