June 11, 1936
The International Surrealist Exhibition was held at the New Burlington Galleries in London, England. During the exhibition Salvador Dali delivered a lecture while wearing a deep-sea diving suit - nearly suffocating in the process. Salvador Dali's Lobster telephone was commissioned by the wealthy and eccentric poet Edward James. Dali's Lobster telephone was not just decorative but was in fact a perfectly functioning telephone.

Dorothea Lange - Migrant Mother (1936)
A famous portrait of the Great Depression.
Robert Capa - Death of a Loyalist Soldier (1936)This famous photograph, probably staged but supposedly depicting the death of a solider during the Spanish civil war, served to de-romance the notion of war.
Unknown - The Nuremberg Rally (1934)Propoganda photos like these certainly helped change the world, for the worse.
Unknown - Lynching (1930)A racist mob took these men from a jail and hung them. The photo was as effective in disgusting many as bolstering white supremacy.
Eric Enstrom - Grace (1918)This religious scene can be found in the homes of millions of Christians, reminding them of ritual prayer and simplicity.
