In 1938 before it was widely used by other photojournalists, he requested that his agency send 12 rolls of Kodachrome and instructions on how to use it. For the first two years that he covered World War II, he carried two cameras \u2013 one colour and one black &amp; white \u2013 and shot colour images of a number of military operations. However during the mid &#8217;40s he returned to exclusively shooting in black and white, partly due to the processing, editing and publishing times that colour required.<\/p>\n<p>After the war, his use of colour became more prevalent during his travels in the late &#8217;40s to cover postwar life in the USSR, Budapest, and Israel, and during the &#8217;50s, while covering the glamorous lifestyles of fashionable ski resorts and French holiday resorts.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_89089&quot;  class=\"c-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-89089\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg\" alt=\"Robert Capa, [Skier sunbathing in front of the Matterhorn, Zermatt, Switzerland], 1950. \u00a9 Robert Capa\/International Center of Photography\/Magnum Photos.\" width=\"600\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg 600w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg?resize=300,300 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg?resize=401,400 401w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg?resize=170,170 170w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg?resize=562,560 562w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2016\/07\/Capa_Skier-sunbathing-in-front-of-the-Matterhorn-Zermatt-Switzerland.jpg?resize=150,150 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Robert Capa, [Skier sunbathing in front of the Matterhorn, Zermatt, Switzerland], 1950. \u00a9 Robert Capa\/International Center of Photography\/Magnum Photos.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\tHis images from this period, which reflect the glamour and allure of the location and lifestyles, lent themselves more to the vibrancy of colour photography.

The colour work was very much a part of trying to keep the Magnum agency afloat, because the magazines wanted more and more colour in the postwar period.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Capa in Color is drawn from the Robert Capa Archive in ICP\u2019s permanent collection. The Archive contains roughly 4,200 colour transparencies \u2013 35mm Kodachrome, 21\u20444 Ektachrome, and some larger Kodachrome sheet film. It also includes thousands of vintage black-and-white prints, negatives, tearsheets, and papers.<\/p>\n<p>Some of these photographs were published in magazines of the day such as <em>Holiday<\/em>,<em> Illustrated<\/em>, <em>Collier\u2019s<\/em>, and <em>Ladies\u2019 Home Journal<\/em>, but the majority have never been widely exhibited.<\/p>\n<p><em>Capa in Colour is currently exhibiting at Le Tripostal, Lille, France, until the end of July 2016.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The exhibition will also travel to Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, Spain, from October 20, 2016\u2013January 15, 2017<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Robert Capa is known mainly for his black and white war photography.
